Rock Family: Chrysanthemum Stone is not a single mineral, but rather a rock. As an easy way to understand the difference, think of rocks as being like cookies and minerals as being the ingredients which make up those cookies. Many different minerals are used to create a rock! Chrysanthemum Stone is a rare variety of Limestone which is partially silicified. Limestone is primarily composed of Aragonite, Calcite and Quartz. The white “flower” is typically Celestine (sometimes called Celestite) or Celestine partially displaced by Aragonite or Calcite. Despite their similar appearance and names, it is not related to Chinese Writing Stone.
Mining: Originally Chrysanthemum Stone could be hand-gathered from the surface of the ground. But as it has become more popular, production has become more disruptive. Most of the Chrysanthemum Stone on the market comes from the clay mines in Hunan, China.

History of Chrysanthemum Stone
Chrysanthemum Stone has only recently discovered by metaphysical healers in the Western world. It has been a popular ornamental stone in China since the 18th century, and may have been using for healing purpose as well. It’s name comes from the flower which it resembles. In China, the chrysanthemum flower is associated with autumn and longevity.
According to Chinese myths dating back to the Qing Dynasty (1644-1912), there was once a pair of immortal lovers who spent their time walking along the path of the Liuyang River. They scattered chrysanthemum petals and blossoms in the water, and their love was so pure that it turned the petals into stone. According to another version, the man was turned into stone and his beloved became a chrysanthemum flower. Their love was so strong, that they begged the gods to join them together, and Chrysanthemum Stone was the result. Today, the center for Chrysanthemum Stone carving and polishing is in the city of Liuyang, which is along the banks of the river.
