Afghan Jade Onyx
This Afghan Jade Onyx obelisk 450g has been crafted from this Serpentine stone found in Pakistan. It features light and deep orange-brown tones that is more distinctive to the Serpentine varieties found in Pakistan, rather than elsewhere. This stone is often referred to as Onyx, even though it is not agate.
Serpentine means ‘snake stone’. It is the name given to a group of magnesium-based asbestos and silicate minerals found in the larger Serpentinite family of minerals. It is formed through plate tectonics and is found on every continent. Serpentine provides powerful healing energy and is linked to our Kundalini energy. When dormant, Kundalini energy lies coiled at the base of the spine. Its release is transformative. Afghan Jade is a form of Serpentine named after that ountry where it is mined. It is translucent to opaque, varying in colour from white, light to dark green and can also occur with yellow, black or pink.
