Product Description
Introduction
These Picture Jasper towers are landscapes in stone—dendritic patterns that read like forests, riverbanks, and twilight skies. Cut tall and polished to a glassy sheen, each piece stands as a unique miniature “painting,” ready for a shelf, altar, or collector’s case.
Geological Details
Picture Jasper is a variety of chalcedony (microcrystalline quartz) in the silicate class with a trigonal crystal system. Over geologic time, iron oxides and other mineral impurities settle into sedimentary layers, forming the scenic banding and dendrites that make this material so beloved. These towers were shaped and polished in China from locally sourced jasper, selected for strong contrast and clean pattern flow.
Aesthetic Appeal
The elongated cuts amplify the vertical “tree” forms and sweeping banding. Under direct or diffuse light, the polish brings out depth and tonal range—from warm beige to cool grey, with crisp, inky dendrites that look painted by nature.
Metaphysical Properties
Often used for grounding and stability, Picture Jasper is said to connect the holder to earth energy and the wisdom of the natural world. Many people work with it for calm focus, creative vision, and a deeper sense of place.
Rarity
While jasper is widespread, cohesive, scene‑like dendrites that run the full height of a tall tower are much harder to find. Each of these four pieces was chosen for pattern strength, polish quality, and display presence.
