Australian Picture Jasper

- natural, flatback cabochons 

Australian Picture Jasper is a naturally patterned variety of jasper (a microcrystalline quartz) with earthy bands of brown, tan, gold, peach, and black formed by mineral-rich sediment layers over time. With a hardness of about 6.5–7 on the Mohs scale, it’s durable and beautifully polishable, making it ideal for cabochons and statement pieces. Often called Desert Jasper or Landscape Jasper, it’s known as a stone of grounding, creativity, and connection to the Earth, believed to inspire inner vision, stability, and a deeper appreciation of nature’s artistry.
