Spider Jasper Specimens
Here's another type of jasper that I can't really tell you much
about except that it comes from Mexico. I got real excited when I first saw the rough material and I couldn't wait to try
it out in some jewelry, but the lighter colored areas totally undercut and don't take a polish. While it didn't work too
well as small gemstones for jewelry, it looks fantastic when polished in larger pieces.
