About the Item

This nicely proportioned, finely carved hardstone sculpture captures these reptiles’ enigmatic, curious presence. The milky blue translucence of the stone adds to the effect. Chalcedony is a microcrystalline form of silica, composed of quartz and morganite, both silica minerals. Please note, there are three small naturally occurring inclusions on the back.
