Ocean Jasper

While Ocean Jasper is especially famous for its distinctive orbicular patterns, not every piece is heavily orbicular. Some specimens display clearly defined circles and “orbs,” while others feature sweeping bands, waves, spots, mineral-filled pockets, Druzy Quartz and more abstract patterns. Colours can include green, pink, red, yellow, cream, white, brown and many beautiful combinations, making every piece completely unique.

The orbicular patterns found in some Ocean Jasper formed through complex geological processes involving silica-rich volcanic material and mineral crystallisation over millions of years.

Ocean Jasper is particularly collectible because the original deposits in north-western Madagascar produced a number of different veins, each with its own distinctive colours and patterns. Some of these older materials are now increasingly difficult to source.

Metaphysically, Ocean Jasper is believed to be a nurturing and uplifting stone associated with emotional balance, positivity and going with the natural flow of life. It is often connected with joy, patience and finding beauty in the present moment.

From highly orbicular specimens to beautifully patterned pieces with little or no visible orbing, Ocean Jasper has an incredible variety that makes it such a fascinating stone to collect.
