Natural Genuine Gemstone, Jasper, Tourmalinated Quartz Chandelier Drop Necklace

Natural Genuine Gemstone, Jasper, Tourmalinated Quartz Chandelier Drop Necklace Normally mined in Namibia, zebra jasper (zebra marble) is especially valued for its distinctive and visually attractive ornamental potential. It is a popular flooring material for this reason, and it is in high demand among sculptors for its eye-catching pattern. When polished, its striations are thought to resemble a zebra's striping--hence its common name. Tourmalinated Quartz is a type of clear rock crystal resulting from the fusion of white quartz with black tourmaline, producing the stone's uniquely striated appearance. Like many kinds of colorful quartz, prolonged exposure to light and heat will eventually alter its coloring and should therefore be avoided. Most of the world's stock is currently mined in Brazil. 26 mm x 16 mm x brown zebra jasper beads 16 mm x 12 mm oval tourmalinated quartz beads Copper chain & lobster claw clasp The length of the necklace : 23" + extension chain
