Red Jasper - medium tumbled

Red Jasper is a natural variety of opaque chalcedony, recognized for its rich brick-red to reddish-brown colouring, sometimes with streaks of grey, cream, or darker mineral inclusions. Its distinctive red colour comes from iron oxide, particularly Hematite. Red Jasper is found worldwide, with notable deposits in Brazil, India, Madagascar, and South Africa.
