AQUA TERRA JASPER
Aqua Terra Jasper is a stone with a unique aesthetic, whose patterns sometimes evoke the veins of a dry desert, sometimes the undulations of a calm lagoon. Sometimes called "ocean jasper" or "imperial jasper", it owes its name to the visual balance it offers between terrestrial (Terra) and aquatic (Aqua) elements. A contemporary stone much appreciated in handcrafted jewelry, it fascinates with its rich natural patterns and its ability to soothe while anchoring.
