Isn’t it beautiful!
Once the Stone is cut and polished so it can be used in a design, it becomes spectacular! the inclusions create images, mostly resembling mountain ranges and deserts. So what a surprise that Arizona has some of the best jasper around!
Picture Jasper is perfect for jewelry because of it’s hardness. You can wear this gemstone in a ring without worrying about scratching it easily.

As Jasper is such a beautiful stone right out of the Earth, have you thought about “just” wrapping it in a beautiful wire? Perhaps with a bail large enough to use as an enhancer?
