These are the nicest quality, prettiest, glossiest Red Jasper rectangles on a 15" strand we have ever had! Beautiful beads in a great colour for autumn. around 7x4mm in size, some bigger.
Jasper is an opaque stone and can appear in virtually any colour, with red jasper being caused by iron inclusions in the stone. Our red jasper has quite uniform colour but you will see other markings natural to the stone in some examples where the stone is described as brecciated.
