Jasper

The jasper presented here is a variety of microcrystalline quartz known for its often speckled or marbled appearance. These specimens, polished to highlight their intricate patterns in grey, black, and sometimes red, illustrate the typical diversity of this stone. Used since antiquity, jasper was valued in many cultures for its ornamental qualities and robustness.
