Bumblebee Jasper Polished Stone | 35.3g

This polished palmstone is carved from Bumblebee Jasper, a striking and colorful material sourced exclusively from the volcanic regions of West Java, Indonesia. Despite its name, Bumblebee Jasper is not a true jasper but a vibrant carbonate rich stone composed primarily of sulfur, hematite, aragonite, and volcanic matter. Its vivid banding of yellow, orange, black, and grey creates bold, naturally occurring patterns that resemble the stripes of a bumblebee.

The yellow and orange coloration comes from high sulfur content, while darker layers often contain manganese oxide or volcanic ash. Though visually dramatic, Bumblebee Jasper is relatively soft and somewhat porous, so it should be kept dry and handled with care to preserve its polish.

Collectors are drawn to its one-of-a-kind patterns and vivid contrast. In metaphysical circles, Bumblebee Jasper is associated with confidence, vitality, and forward momentum, often seen as a stone that energizes and motivates personal growth.
