12.1" Polychrome Jasper "Tree" Sculpture - Madagascar

This is a beautiful, polished stone tree made of jasper from Madagascar. This "tree" has a very unique character, as the patterns and colors are so abundant and vibrant. A mixture of green, purple, blue, red and orange colors can all be found throughout this specimen. The base has been cut flat to display on any flat surface without the use of a stand.

Polychrome jasper (also known as desert jasper) is known as one of the rarest forms of jasper: it is only mined from a single location in Madagascar! The jasper deposits are typically in ribbon-like formations, and are almost always multicolored. The colors presented by this mineral are commonly earthy purples, tans, reds, and pinks, but teal polychrome jasper is one of the more sought after and desired colors. Some people consider it a form of picture jasper.
