Desert Jasper

Published by kalilea at 9:07 am under Jasper, Madagascar Edit This

desertjasper.jpgIt’s been a busy week for me, and I haven’t had hardly any time to work on any of my “rock projects”.  I should have switched out the crystals that I’ve been tumbling, but I haven’t even had time for that.  I’m going to have to make sure to allot some time for that today or I’ll end up grinding them to bits.

I don’t have any new pictures, but I still wanted to post a picture today!  So I decided that I would show off this piece of desert jasper that I photographed awhile back.  It’s a specimen from Madagascar that has some very beautiful color combinations.  I have quite a few more of this type that I plan to photograph when I get a little bit of extra time.

    I love it Kalilea, it is hard for me to imagine how all those colors were embedded in the stone, but the combination is really lovely.

    I love the earth tone of this desert jasper. The greenish hue gives an illusion that there is an oasis in that part of the desert. Very nice.
