Realistic, 3.1" Polished Serpentine Stone Bear with Fish - Oklahoma

Serpentine is the name for a grouping of several related minerals, primarily antigorite and chrysotile. Antigorite serpentine typically represents the solid forms of serpentine, which are typically columnar in structure. Chrysotile serpentine consists of four separate groups; clinochrysotile, lizardite, orthochrysotile and parachrysotile, all of which have the same chemical composition. The difference between these groups of chrysotile serpentines are their crystal lattices. There are a variety of other forms of serpentine, but most of them are extremely rare.
