PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Leopard Stone – A Unique Serpentine Gem with Captivating Patterns
Leopard Stone, a stunning serpentine gem from the Nyanga region of eastern Zimbabwe, is known for its striking black spots against a pale green background. This rare gem features bold, eye-catching patterns, making it a true geological wonder. Historically used in Shona art carvings, the traditional art of polishing Leopard Stone had faded, but expert Zimbabwean lapidaries have recently revived this craft. Our newly polished pieces are now available, offering something truly unique for any collection or retail space.
