Jasper stone set in silver brooch

Unique handmade rectangular stone brooch with natural patterns. Features shades of cream and brown. Also known as Scenic Jasper, Picture Jasper is a beautiful variety of Agate or jasperized Rhyolite, prized for its landscape-like inclusions which are revealed when the material is properly cut. The stones with those unusual "pictures" (hills, waves, shores) are highly prized by collectors, not only for their beauty but also for their rarity; the material is mined only in the Namibia desert (Africa) and Oregon (USA). 1 5/8” tall 1 1/8” wide
