Septarian Crafted in Sterling Silver
Septarian pendant crafted in a fine sterling silver setting.
The name of this stone comes from the Latin 'septum' meaning a dividing partition between two tissues or cavities. That's a pretty good description of what it is.
Formed from crystals of yellow calcite, the mineral aragonite and limestone, septarian is popular with rock and mineral collectors. Stones of this size in jewellery are rare.
There are some natural marks in the yellow calcite which could possibly have been polished out. For this reason this septarian pendant has been slightly reduced.
