Green Jasper Stone Pendant wire wrapped with 14kt gold filled wire

Description

This pendant is wire sculpted with 14kt gold filled wire, hand twisted and a square green jasper stone. Little did I know this pendant would end up looking like a martian robot. It measures in about 1" wide and 2" tall. It definitely has its own personality but I have had some good compliments on it. This is actually my favorite pendant because of its uniqueness, the mingled green with the brown and black Jasper stone, beautiful.

A little history about Green Jasper. The name means "spotted or speckled stone". It is derived from the Greek. It is translated to the English version Jasper. Green jasper was used to make bow drills in Mehrgarh between 4th-5th millennium BCE. Its name can be traced back in Hebrew, Assyrian, Persian, Greek and Latin.

Despite the most common form of Jasper being red, a green form of Jasper - which was very rare, and so highly prized; I found the following information listing the following- In the Book of Revelation (21:11), the new Jerusalem descending from heaven is described as follows: "It shone with the glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal."

It seems that jaspers are traditional birthstones for the people that are born in March.
