Septarian Dragon Egg - Madagascar, 7 in

This septarian nodule from Madagascar has been polished into an egg, and once you see the cracked, veined pattern running through it in browns, yellows and blacks you understand instantly where the dragon egg nickname came from. Septarian starts as a mud nodule that dries, cracks and slowly fills back in with crystallizing calcite and aragonite, so all that veining is a record of what happened to it. It is a grounding stone, good for communication and for keeping your emotions on an even keel, and it is gorgeous on a desk where people can pick it up, and they will! This egg stands 7 in tall and measures 13 in around.
