1st Vein Orbicular Ocean Jasper Slab on Stand - One of a Kind, 7.5 In

This slab is first vein ocean jasper, cut from the Marovato material mined between 1999 and 2006.

Eight veins have been found at Marovato, and each gives slightly different looking stone; first vein material tends toward green, pink and white. This slab is nearly square, which gives the orbs and patterns a wide, even field, and the close up photos show the detail across its face. A metal stand is included, so it stands upright on a shelf, mantel or desk the day it arrives, and the photo of the back on the stand shows how it sits. It is cut thin, as the side view shows, which keeps the face large without much bulk. For an ocean jasper collector, a first vein slab of this width is a centerpiece for the collection.

About Ocean Jasper

Ocean jasper is a trade name for orbicular jasper, also called fish eye jasper, from the Marovato area on the northwest coast of Madagascar. The deposit lies in the intertidal zone and could be worked only at low tide. Its round orbs are spherulites of radiating fibrous chalcedony, and larger orbs often have drusy quartz centers.

Stone Meaning: Ocean jasper is traditionally associated with joy and nurturing.
