This delightful cherry carving fits well in the hand and is so pretty it has beautiful little Orbs layered within its body, and two completely different sides one more opaque showing the beautiful orbicular layers; So pretty!! on the flip side little windows giving it depth and layers, nestled among grey, white and peachy beige dense "orb" flower pattens.
Orbicular Jasper or Cellular Jasper, is a very rare variety of Jasper. This unusual mineral has only one known locality at the base of a cliff in Madagascar which is only accessible by boat during low tide; making it extremely difficult and dangerous to access. Mining operations of Ocean Jasper were stopped in 2006 due to depletion of mines at this locatio and heightened safety risks. All Ocean Jasper on the market today is either a back stock or has been hoarded by collectors and sellers for years.
Ocean jasper is highly prized for it ability to aids in the removal of negative energy and stress, while promoting feelings of peace and calm. Ocean Jasper is said to be amazing at helping one achieve joy, happiness and emotional stability. Through the release of any weight or strains one may carry on their heart, and urges you to vocalize and move forward from these emotional issues. It helps to achieve this as it activates and aligns our solar plexus, heart, and throat chakras.
