About  Jasper (All Types)

This bracelet incorporates black onyx, tiger's eye, and jasper (the tan marbled stone).

Jasper is used by Native American jewelers and Zuni fetish carvers in a variety of ways.

In Navajo jewelry, jasper can be used as cabochons set in Sterling Silver. 

In Zuni fetish carvings, one usually sees jasper as a stand-alone material representing the animal or figure's body, or as a part of a stone-inlay for ornamentation.

This bracelet also incorporates black onyx, tiger's eye and jasper in Sterling Silver.
