Jasper; spheres, semi-polished; 2 unique specimen as pair
Jasper, spheres, semi-polished. Two unique specimens as a pair for mineral collectors.
Two distinctive specimens featuring half-polished Jasper spheres, offered as a collector’s pair. These unique pieces showcase Jasper’s natural variety with vivid internal structure and striking patterns. One side is polished to reveal the inner beauty of the material, while the opposite side retains its raw, natural texture.
Jasper is a type of microcrystalline quartz formed by mineral inclusions that give it its characteristic appearance. Partially polished specimens like these are highly valued for their aesthetic appeal and geological significance. The contrast between natural and polished surfaces creates an eye-catching effect.
A perfect pair for collectors of silicate minerals, contrasting mineral forms, and authentic natural pieces. Two miniatures that complement each other – bold, organic, and one of a kind.
