Historical Lore

Jasper is a microcrystalline quartz used since antiquity, with widespread archaeological evidence from ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, and the Mediterranean region. It was commonly carved into seals, amulets, beads, and decorative objects due to its durability and variety of natural patterns. Jasper Nguni is a modern trade name used in the mineral and lapidary market to describe patterned jasper with distinctive banding and mottling. While jasper as a mineral has ancient historical use, this specific trade variety is primarily identified and used in contemporary decorative stone markets.
