I completed this pendant last night- my lovely Sister in Law mentioned a while back that she really liked Serpentine so I'd been on the look out for some for a while and eventually a "rockhound" friend of mine happened to cut one! So I grabbed it and wrapped it up in Sterling Silver for her just in time for Valentines Day! I actually had never heard of Serpentine until she mentioned it! It's aptly named- the Latin "Serpentinus" means "Serpent Rock." Super cool. Also while I was researching this particular stone I discovered another really awesome looking stone called "Lizardite!" It too is aptly named but far more rare. Also, this pendant is pictured with a drum my friend sent to me from Galway, Ireland. :) Fun stuff.
