Green Serpentine Meaning – General Information and History.

Subject to which resource is referred to, Serpentine has two versions of how it got its name. 1) Serpentine originally got its name from Pliny the Elder in the first century, due to the belief that it could heal and protect against snake bites. Today, we admire it for its striking colours and patterns. The belief is that the name Green Serpentine originated in Greece, and known as ‘ophichalkos‘ or ‘snake stone‘. The Greeks used it for jewellery, decorations, and even for culinary purposes. They believed that it could protect against evil spirits and ward off diseases. 2) The German mineralogist Georgius Agricola (Georg Bauer) named it Serpentine in 1564. Serpentine derives from Latin serpens ‘serpent’ because its mottled green appearance resembles the skin of a snake.

Apart from its use in ancient Greece, it has played a significant role in various other cultures throughout history. China associated it with longevity and immortality. The ancient Egyptians used Green Serpentine as a symbol of inner strength and healing. The Aztecs in Mesoamerica also used it in their decorative arts and for medicinal purposes. And also highly regarded in Ancient Egypt, Persia, and Assyria for its exquisite lustre.

Green Serpentine commonly crystallizes into masses and flat-like plates. Its colours range from light to dark greens. The Mohs hardness typically ranges between 2.5 and 5.5, depending on the mineral composition. Because it is a group of minerals rather than a single mineral, hardness can vary significantly, even within the same specimen. It usually has a waxy, greasy, or silky lustre and has a monoclinic, microcrystalline crystal structure.

With a rich history and cultural significance, Green Serpentine remains highly valued and sought after in today’s modern world. It is often used in architecture, for carvings, decorative objects, and jewellery.
