Mineral & Geological Details – Serpentine Group
Serpentine refers to a group of magnesium-rich phyllosilicate minerals formed through the metamorphic alteration of ultramafic rocks such as peridotite and dunite. The serpentine group commonly includes minerals such as antigorite, lizardite and chrysotile. These minerals typically form in environments associated with hydrothermal activity and low- to medium-grade metamorphism.
Serpentine has a chemical composition broadly based on hydrated magnesium silicate, often written as Mg₃Si₂O₅(OH)₄, though variations occur depending on the specific mineral species and trace elements present. It crystallises in the monoclinic or orthorhombic crystal systems depending on the variety.
Colour ranges from soft pale green and olive to deep forest green, often with mottled or veined patterns resembling reptile skin, which inspired its name. It is typically opaque to translucent with a waxy to silky lustre. Some specimens may display fibrous textures or subtle internal patterning caused by metamorphic processes.
Serpentine commonly occurs alongside minerals such as magnetite, talc, chlorite and carbonate minerals in metamorphic rock formations. Its distinctive green tones and smooth finish make it a popular material for carvings, beads and pendants.
Pencil Point Design – Classic Crystal Form
The pencil pendant shape reflects the traditional crystal point style, offering a clean and versatile jewellery design. The elongated point enhances the natural colour and surface texture of the serpentine while providing a balanced, wearable form.
