Dendritic opal is known for its tiny black ferns, branching manganese growths that spread all through the stone.
These pieces have flat cut bases, so they stand on a desk or shelf like small natural sculptures. Plant lovers and fans of botanical art tend to fall for the patterns.

About Dendritic Opal
Dendritic opal is a common opal containing dendrites, branching mineral growths usually made of manganese oxide. The dendrites form as mineral rich fluids seep into tiny cracks and crystallize in fern like patterns.
Stone Meaning: Dendritic opal is traditionally associated with growth and connection to nature.
