Product Description

Introduction

Hand-carved from natural Cambaba Jasper, this 2.45 kg skull pairs a manageable display size with bold, ancient patterning. The polished surface reveals flowing green and black orbs that read beautifully under light.

Geological Details

Cambaba (Kambaba) Jasper is a stromatolite-bearing rock composed of fossilized algal structures in a microcrystalline quartz matrix (silicate class; trigonal quartz). Madagascar is the premier source for carving-grade material. The concentric “eye” orbs and dark swirls are remnants of Precambrian microbial colonies, giving the stone both visual drama and deep geologic heritage.

Aesthetic Appeal

The skull’s contours guide the orbicular patterns across brow, cheekbones, and jaw, creating a reptilian, almost camouflaged look. A high polish enhances contrast and depth for a striking, natural artwork.

Metaphysical Properties

Often called the “Stone of Peace,” Cambaba Jasper is associated with grounding, resilience, and calm. In skull form—a symbol of wisdom and transformation—it becomes a steady, protective focal point for meditation or intentional spaces.

Rarity

While available in small decor items, medium-scale carvings with crisp orbicular definition and strong polish are less common. This specimen’s patterning and finish place it above routine decorative jaspers.

Why You Will Love This

Ancient story, modern presence: a versatile centerpiece that suits mineral cabinets, desk displays, or design-forward interiors.
