Guest guest Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 I have a Naga Mani in my collection. Not from Cobra, it's from Indonesian Seribu snake. It wasn't killed because the mani is petrified (millions of years old) from a Ular Kembang Seribu snake that died ages ago and got covered over. I had the mani checked by GIA labs and AIGS labs, and they could NOT disprove it NOR identify what it was. Mostly calcium turned into silica (which is what happens when organic matter becomes petrified). It's oval shape. Attached is a picture (upper left) along with some other rare items. Note, they are not all the same size like the picture seems. The Nagamani is about 3/4 inch long. The Gaja mani is about 2 inches wide. They are all petrified.
