Jasper
Jasper is a dense, fine-grained variety of quartz, often opaque and available in many colours. The stone is characterised by its unique patterns and hues, created by inclusions of other minerals or oxides. Jasper is often formed in sedimentary or volcanic environments.
Major deposits include India, Brazil, Madagascar and Australia. Its chemical formula is SiOâ‚‚, and it belongs to the quartz family. Its hardness is around 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale.
Popular varieties include red jasper, dalmatian jasper, mookaite jasper, polychrome jasper, breccia jasper and ocean jasper.

Pierced Pendants
Pierced pendants are polished and cut (precious) stones with a drill hole, making them easy to wear on a cord or chain. This makes them a popular choice for jewellery. In most cases, the pendants are pierced widthwise, from left to right.
The pierced pendants are available in various shapes and sizes, including drop, oval, point and heart. Some of the range is manufactured in China, while other pendants come from Madagascar. The pierced diameter varies by model and is usually between 2 and 4 mm. We sell the pierced pendants individually, with some having a minimum order of 5 pieces. Unfortunately, we do not currently have any matching cord or chain in our range!
