Red Jasper gemstone pendant 925 silver 32x25 mm

The name jasper comes from Greek and means "spotted stone" – although in antiquity, very different minerals were referred to as jasper than today. Red jasper, also known as silex, gets its characteristic brick-red to dark red color from iron oxide inclusions in the microcrystalline quartz. It belongs to the chalcedony group and is formed secondarily through transformation processes. This large pendant displays the rich, earthy color of red jasper particularly impressively – set in 925 sterling silver.
