We recently had 2 separate orders of Serpentine from Vermont shipped to us to be slabbed and cabbed. And I would like to share with our readers what we learned....
( By the way, if anyone is knowledgeable about this stone and has anything they would like to add, we encourage you to comment below!)
This Serpentine came straight from remote areas of the Green Mountains of Northeast Vermont. It is commonly referred to as "Vermont Jade". It is used as a source of magnesium and asbestos, as well as a decorative stone.
Serpentine, AKA “Vermont Jade” isn't a true jade. It is a form of diopside which can also contain green grossular garnet deposits.
It's colors and patterns vary between different stones and even within the same stone...
Serpentine is a durable stone that is found in a large number of places including Australia, Britain, Russia, Norway, Italy, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Brazil and the USA.
Below is the second order that was sent to us.

Metaphysical: Many years ago and to present day Green Mountain Serpentine was considered a protector of vital energy and against invisible powers and believed to contain healing properties and help you feel at ease with yourself and let go of sorrow and pain and to balance your emotions.
