Jasper, meaning “spotted stone” in Old French, is a type of Chalcedony, which is the microcrystalline variety of Quartz. Jasper can be traced back to all ancient civilizations, being the primary mineral used in creating primitive tools due to its hardness and delicacy. The most common color of Jasper is red due to iron inclusions, however, jasper forms in an array of colors dependent upon the amount of impurities. These same impurities create patterns and bands within the stone oftentimes resembling landscapes. Polychrome Jasper is a newly-discovered variety of jasper named for the multiple colors within the stone. This collection includes 3 hand-polished polychrome jasper freeforms with dragon-scale patterns.

Metaphysical: Jasper is considered the “Supreme Nurturer,” as it absorbs and transmutes negative energy while providing tranquility. Jasper supplies comfort, strength and healing during trying times and provides courage and willpower to overcome obstacles. Jasper expands resistance to environmental stress such as pollution, toxins and radiation.
