{"product_id":"serpentine-crystal-carved-wolf-head","title":"Serpentine Crystal Carved Wolf Head Collector Piece","description":"\u003cp\u003eSerpentine has a quality that's hard to pin down until you're holding it. The green is deep and varied, moving from forest to sage to near-black depending on the light, with natural veining and inclusions that give each piece its own character. Carved into a wolf head at this scale, roughly 180 to 200mm tall and around 1.5kg, it becomes something genuinely commanding. The wolf form is precise and expressive, the kind of carving that captures both the power and the intelligence of the animal. This is a collector's piece in every sense.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStone: \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/serpentine-crystal-meaning-healing-properties-uses\"\u003eSerpentine\u003c\/a\u003e, a rich green magnesium silicate mineral with grounding, protective energy and a deep connection to the natural world\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChakras: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/root-chakra-crystals\"\u003eRoot Chakra\u003c\/a\u003e (primary), \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/heart-chakra-crystals\"\u003eHeart Chakra\u003c\/a\u003e (secondary)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis product is an exact pick as pictured, one of a kind.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisplay on a shelf, altar, or collector's cabinet as a statement sculpture with strong protective and grounding energy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChakra Connection\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSerpentine resonates most strongly with the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/root-chakra-crystals\"\u003eRoot Chakra\u003c\/a\u003e, the energy center governing safety, stability, and our sense of being grounded in the physical world.

Placing it near \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/selenite-crystals\"\u003eSelenite\u003c\/a\u003e is a gentle and effective way to keep it energetically clear without any risk to the carving. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight and keep away from water, which can affect the surface over time.

It's found worldwide, with notable deposits in China, New Zealand, Italy, Canada, and the United States. The name comes from the Latin \"serpentinus,\" meaning serpent rock, likely a reference to its mottled green color. On the Mohs scale it rates approximately 3 to 4. In crystal healing practice, Serpentine is associated with grounding, protection, connection to nature, and the clearing of stagnant or negative energy. It's considered a stone of the earth, carrying a steady, anchoring quality that makes it particularly effective for Root Chakra work and protective practices.
