Gemstone of the Moment: Kambaba Jasper

Gemstones are said to have certain "powers". Whether I believe in these powers or not remains to be seen, but I do find it interesting to read about the stones I am using.

My new favorite gemstone to use is Kambaba Jasper (Africa). This black and green swirly stone sometimes reminds me of a Van Gogh painting.

It's said that Kambaba Jasper helps dietary stabilization, assimilation of minerals and vitamins, and cleanses the body of toxins. In addition, this type of jasper may help to soothe your nerves and helps to ease your state of mind.

This necklace was made with an assortment of multicolored glass beads. I usually end up with a bunch of beads that don't have a lot of matches, so I gathered them together to make this necklace.

This necklace was made with amber colored glass beads as well as very pale pink glass based pearls. I used gold colored eye pins to connect the beads. It's 18.5 inches long.
