Jasper

Jasper is an opaque form of chalcedony that occurs in a wide range of colours and patterns, from deep red to mottled brown and forest green. Across its many varieties it shares a reputation as a grounding, nurturing stone, believed to bring stability during times of stress and steady, sustained energy rather than a quick burst. It's been used for beads and carvings since ancient times thanks to how well it takes a polish. Jasper works well as an everyday stone, worn without much fuss.
