Artist: EA for Trader Shop, New Mexico, USA
Materials: Bumblebee Jasper, Sterling Silver
Description: This is a striking piece of what is being called Bumblee Jasper (also known as Fumarolic Jasper). Geologically it doesn't really qualify as jasper. The stone is a mixture of Indonesian volcanic lava and sediment. It is usually found in some mix of yellow, orange, off-white, black, and khaki green. I went through an entire box to select this one. It never ceases to amaze me what comes out of nature.
It has a MOHs hardness of 5 or less. I strongly suspect this is stabilized in some manner.
Due to the sulphur content (the PH of which is acidic), I probably would avoid this stone in a ring as getting it wet when washing hands could eventually contribute to pitting of the silver.
Chain not included - Do you need a chain, please go to the accessories collection.
