Historical Lore:
Red jasper is a variety of microcrystalline quartz that has been used since antiquity, with documented use in ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Greece, and Rome. It was commonly carved into seals, amulets, and engraved gemstones due to its hardness and durability. In ancient Egyptian culture, jasper was often used in funerary objects and decorative inlays. Across Mediterranean civilizations, it was also used in signet rings for sealing documents. Archaeological findings show that jasper was widely traded and valued for both practical carving purposes and ornamental use in jewellery and tools.
