🌊 Natural Ocean Jasper Necklace 🌊

This unique Ocean Jasper necklace is a one-of-a-kind piece, handcrafted by us at Platypus Dreaming in the heart of the lush rainforests of Far North Queensland, Australia. Known for its captivating patterns and soothing energy, Ocean Jasper is often called the “Stone of Joy” for its ability to lift the spirit and encourage positive vibes. Part of our Rainforest Spirit Collection, this pendant radiates the natural beauty and grounding energy of the Earth.

Ocean Jasper is a rare and cherished gemstone, found only along the remote shores of Madagascar. Each stone is filled with stunning, organic patterns and colors that seem to mirror the rhythm of the ocean itself. Ocean Jasper is prized for its ability to soothe emotions, enhance feelings of peace, and provide a steadying, calming energy. For centuries, it has been used as a stone of renewal and balance, helping the wearer find joy, gratitude, and tranquility.

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.
