Green Hair Jasper

Green Jasper is an opaque variety of chalcedony, a microcrystalline form of quartz, known for its rich green color and natural earthy patterns. Its color is typically caused by mineral inclusions such as iron or chlorite within the stone.

Found in locations around the world, Green Jasper forms in sedimentary and volcanic environments over long geological periods. Each piece is unique, often displaying streaks, spots, or “hair-like” mineral patterns that give some specimens their nickname, Green Hair Jasper.

Popular among collectors and lapidary artists, Green Jasper is valued for its durability, natural beauty, and the fascinating mineral processes that create its distinct appearance.
