{"product_id":"septarian-freeform","title":"Septarian Freeform","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis polished septarian freeform shows yellow calcite and brown aragonite veins running through gray stone, the classic dragon stone pattern that looks like cracked earth or scaly dragon skin. Polished to a smooth finish, each piece shows bold contrast you can trace with a fingertip. Every freeform is listed by its own code, weight and size, about 95-320g and 52-80mm, so you choose the exact one.

Often called dragon stone, it is associated with grounding, patience, steady personal growth and inner strength. Because it formed slowly in ancient seabeds, cracked under pressure and then filled with crystal, many people see it as a symbol of resilience: turning breaks into something beautiful. It is a favorite stone for anyone rebuilding after change or working toward long-term goals.

Dust it with a soft, dry brush or cloth. Avoid soaking, acids and harsh cleaners, which can etch calcite and loosen the clay. Store it apart from harder crystals such as quartz.

As the mud ball dried and shrank, cracks opened inside it and later filled with yellow calcite and brown aragonite, creating its dragon-skin pattern. Utah and Madagascar are two of the best-known sources. Polished freeforms show the contrast between the gray outer stone and the bright crystal veins, which is why no two pieces ever look the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFurther Reading\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/septarian-stone-ancient-dragon-stone-for-grounding-transformation\"\u003eSeptarian Stone: The Ancient Dragon Stone\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/sea-sediment-crystals-ocean-jasper-septarian-guide\"\u003eSea Sediment Crystals: Ocean Jasper and Septarian Guide\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eChoose the septarian freeform whose pattern speaks to you and bring a piece of ancient seabed home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ali","offers":[{"title":"Septarian \/ A21   268g 72-54mm","offer_id":48299944673451,"sku":"1005009485129499-A21   268g 72-54mm","price":85.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Septarian \/ A22   320g 80-64mm","offer_id":48299945230507,"sku":"1005009485129499-A22   320g 80-64mm","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Septarian \/ A23   248g 70-67mm","offer_id":48299945197739,"sku":"1005009485129499-A23   248g 70-67mm","price":86.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Septarian \/ A24   276g 75-52mm","offer_id":48299945296043,"sku":"1005009485129499-A24   276g 75-52mm","price":87.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Septarian \/ A25   275g 76-69mm","offer_id":48299945263275,"sku":"1005009485129499-A25   275g 76-69mm","price":85.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Septarian \/ A26   271g 75-56mm","offer_id":48299945099435,"sku":"1005009485129499-A26   271g 75-56mm","price":83.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Septarian \/ A27   232g 70-72mm","offer_id":48299945066667,"sku":"1005009485129499-A27   232g 70-72mm","price":85.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Septarian \/ A28    260g 70-55mm","offer_id":48299945164971,"sku":"1005009485129499-A28    260g 70-55mm","price":87.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Septarian \/ A29   181g 63-58mm","offer_id":48299945132203,"sku":"1005009485129499-A29   181g 63-58mm","price":78.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Septarian \/ A30   195g 67-47mm","offer_id":48299944968363,"sku":"1005009485129499-A30   195g 67-47mm","price":81.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Septarian \/ A31   207g 73-49mm","offer_id":48299944935595,"sku":"1005009485129499-A31   207g 73-49mm","price":78.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Septarian \/ A32   165g 62-51mm","offer_id":48299945033899,"sku":"1005009485129499-A32   165g 62-51mm","price":67.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Septarian \/ A33    275g 79-55mm","offer_id":48299945001131,"sku":"1005009485129499-A33    275g 79-55mm","price":85.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Septarian \/ A34   131g 59-51mm","offer_id":48299944837291,"sku":"1005009485129499-A34   131g 59-51mm","price":58.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Septarian \/ A35   130g 63-42mm","offer_id":48299944804523,"sku":"1005009485129499-A35   130g 63-42mm","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Septarian \/ A36   110g 54-49mm","offer_id":48299944902827,"sku":"1005009485129499-A36   110g 54-49mm","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Septarian \/ A37   149g 62-40mm","offer_id":48299944870059,"sku":"1005009485129499-A37   149g 62-40mm","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Septarian \/ A38   127g 65-45mm","offer_id":48299944738987,"sku":"1005009485129499-A38   127g 65-45mm","price":60.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Septarian \/ A39   113g 52-41mm","offer_id":48299944706219,"sku":"1005009485129499-A39   113g 52-41mm","price":53.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Septarian \/ A40    95g 55-44mm","offer_id":48299944771755,"sku":"1005009485129499-A40    95g 55-44mm","price":51.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/0345\/5915\/files\/Septarian-Freeform-Freeforms-Septarian-A34-131g-59-51mm.jpg?v=1792380275","url":"https:\/\/www.crystaldestiny.com\/products\/septarian-freeform","provider":"Crystal Destiny","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
