This is an absolutely divine one of a kind creation. This crystal talisman features a thick piece of Ocean Jasper fossilized coral which is millions of years old: so old in fact that it is extracted deep from underground, and is part of the mineral kingdom. Deposits of this stone are found only in Indonesia and Madagascar. It has been handcrafted by us here at Platypus Dreaming in the luscious rainforests of Far North Queensland, Australia. This talisman features a 1000 pure silver tribal bead that has been hand-cut and chiseled using traditional techniques.

This semiprecious gemstone cabochon material known as Ocean Jasper is a variety of chalcedony found in a silicified rhyolite flow. The mining area stretches for about 120 miles on the remote and rugged western coastline, on the northernmost part of this island nation.

Orbicular Ocean Jasper is from the Mahajanga Province, in northwestern Madagascar. It is found in the Analalava district of the Sofia region in the former province of Mahajanga. There are actually two different deposits, about ten miles apart. One is on the coast the other is a little more inland.

Some Ocean Jasper can only be seen and collected at low tide by boat. The workers go on shore to collect it, but the area has no road, so the material must be transported out by boat once the tide rises. The workers break the huge boulders up with hammers into smaller manageable pieces.

Ocean Jasper was first written about in 1922 and then the location was actually lost for almost 80 years! It hit the Tucson Gem Show in 2000 and quickly became famous.

Ocean Jasper was named for its location as well as its resemblance to the foam of the ocean as it recedes back into the ocean, with its wavy patterns of green-gray, white, cream, beige, brown, pink and maroon.

Occasionally this designer cabochon material will have translucent areas, or beautiful pockets of natural green or white crystals.

Jasper is a member of the Chalcedony family with a hardness of 6.5-7. Ocean Jasper cabochons take a great polish and wear well.

Unfortunately the sources have been depleted and good quality rough is increasingly hard to find.

Frequently Asked

Using Your Talisman

Absolutely! These pieces are designed for surfers, swimmers, and alike. They can be worn in the shower, and/or when swimming – and the colours will not fade. Our talismans have proven their durability in our rainforest home against the elements of sun, water, humidity, and heat.

Platypus Dreaming creations are handcrafted using the highest quality waxed strings on earth. They are designed to be long lasting and with the right care, they will maintain their original shape and colour for years to come. These talismans are water resistant and feel very organic when worn against the skin. All stones have different hardness levels so please be gentle and treat them with the right level of care. Each piece is designed with longevity in mind. We only use silver and/or stainless-steel beads which will never rust or loose colour.

We recommend a gentle rinse under fresh water – preferably rain or river water. Moonlight also works beautifully, as does smoke, i.e. sage, or Palo Santo. You can also use other crystals to energetically clear your talisman, such as an amethyst cluster. Some crystal talismans benefit from being cleaned regularly as they are carriers of energy. Others, such as moldavite, are independent beings and do not need cleansing. If you have any questions about the metaphysical aspects of the stones, please send us an email at info@platypusdreaming.com.au and we can answer your questions individually.

We have been travelling the world for 15+ years to source exotic and interesting gemstones. Wherever possible, we travel directly to the source, to develop a first-hand relationship with the people who take the stones from the Earth. This ensures we are familiar with the processes involved when extracting the stones from Earth; and that stones are ethically hand-collected with great respect and care.
