Green Buddstone Egg [1] South Africa

1.3" Comes with Acrylic Display and stand. 

This is a vibrant, 1.4" tall polished egg formed from bright green Buddstone, collected in South Africa. The polish work on this egg is second to none with none of the scuff marks or dull areas like those found on lesser quality material. 

Buddstone is a bright green variety of chalcedony that's prized for its durability and vibrant color. It's often used in jewelry and carvings. 

Buddstone is a soft metamorphic rock found only in South Africa. It is often found growing with Verdite, another green metamorphic rock. Both stones get their coloring from Fuchsite, and sometimes the stones are confused by sellers who use the names interchangeably. They are also sometimes confused with Green Jade because all three have a similar buttery texture when polished. But, Buddstone is a wonderful crystal to get to know in its own right. It offers us the wisdom of our ancestors, stretching all the way back to our ancient grandfathers and grandmothers who lived as hunters and gathers at the dawn of time. It is a phenomenal crystal ally for healing ancestral trauma in ourselves and our community.
