It is believed to encourage a deep connection with the life of the Earth. It inspires a positive, joyful attitude and gives the motivation and energy to take creative action. Jasper was thought to drive away evil spirits and protect against snake and spider bites.Morgan Hill Poppy Jasper is a famous, but increasingly rare orbicular jasper with red and yellow dots of "poppy flowers". It is a brecciated jasper, meaning it probably came from sun-dried and oxidized iron-rich clay. The cracks were filled in by other substances.Jasper is from the chalcedony/quartz group. It is a microcrystalline variety of quartz that contains up to 20% foreign material. These materials are what determine the color and appearance of the stone. Also because of the foreign materials, jasper is rarely uniform in color, it is usually multicolored, striped, and/or spotted.Jaspers of all kinds have long been attributed magical powers in just about every culture known to man. Jasper was used in Ancient European times as a "rain bringer" and it is interesting to note that the word for jasper in some American Indian cultures also meant, "Rain Bringer".HEIRLOOM QUALITY: What do you mean heirloom quality? What I mean when I use heirloom is that the materials used are the strongest , finest quality material that is available on the market. Heirloom quality jewelry, Rosaries and Chaplets can be passed on from generation to generation because they are durable and hold special sentimental value. My beloved Grandmother passed on this year and had many quality Rosaries to pass on to me and my sisters. They are our most treasured memories of her, she had prayed on each and every one of them and she gave us the Rosary that was used on our behalf. I make each and every one of my Rosaries, Chaplets and jewelry items with that intention in mind. You will not find cheap made in China materials used on any of my items for sale. I take special pride in each and every item that I do, all while keeping them affordable enough to purchase. Please keep in mind that I do custom orders and put my customers in the highest regard!
