One might think that a scene had been painted on the cabochon seen in
these photos. You would be forgiven if you thought that, but this is
the genuine article, 100 percent natural stone, and painted by Mother
Nature. Picture jasper, which I am always calling Story Jasper, takes
on amazing lines and areas of color that remind the viewer of a
landscape or other image. IT IS NOT PAINTED ON. The pattern goes right
through the stone and you can see it on the other side.
Picture jasper is a form of chalcedony with impurities of iron that produce banding and color.
Among
its metaphysical and healing properties, picture jasper is said to
strengthen the immune system and helps maintain good kidney function.
Some people claim that picture jasper helps one open his or her mind to
new possibilities, increases one's awareness of actions nearby, and
helps bring harmony to the holder and the surroundings.
The
pendant seen here is an oval cabochon set on a decorative ring of
copper and held in place with numerous brass prongs. All metal pieces
have been given a clear lacquer coat to preserve the bright shiny
coppery color.
Overall dimensions are 1 1/4 inches by 1
5/8 inches. The cord is black woven cotton and is 24 inches long
finished with wound copper hooks.
This pendant is sure
to be a conversation starter for the wearer. Price is $80 inclusive of
shipping to destinations in the US. Please inquire about postal rates to
areas outside the US.
