Stone Canyon jasper ~
Here is a striking cabochon of classic Stone Canyon jasper, from California. It is fine example of
brecciated stone, which means the original ochre-yellow jasper was once broken apart by some
powerful earth movement, and then naturally re-cemented with contrasting burgundy-red and clear
agate. Even though the stone is quite substantial, at 6mm thick, the agate has a nice degree of
translucency in those infilled areas, for great added depth. In all the years I've been cabbing, this is
the nicest patterned, most beautifully colored Stone Canyon jasper I've yet seen! The stone has a
somewhat rounded designer 'shield' shape, and a super slick glassy polish both front and back.
