I purchased 5 crystals from this seller after consulting with her on which ones would help me in my path to healing. She went above and beyond in her concern and effort and besides the crystals, which are lovely, included a herbal teabag to treat myself to a soothing cup of comfort and a pen and question/affirmation sheet to help with my inner search.

Supply Chain for Picture Jasper

This Picture Jasper comes from artisanal miners in the Kalahari Desert, Namibia. Artisanal mining for Jasper typically has a low environmental impact and is relatively low risk for miners.

This lapidary drum tumbles stones in Cape Town, South Africa. It is a family business, founded by a father and passed on to his sons. Factory workers have safe conditions and are paid fairly. The lapidary sells primarily at two gemshows, one in the United States and the other in France.

I have been doing business with this source since 2014. They are the oldest tumbling company in the world and have more varieties, in more sizes, than any other known source. The company started in California in the 1950s and was eventually bought by a British immigrant who had young sons. Eventually the company moved to South Africa in order to be closer to the source of their best-selling stone and to have the legal rights to export it. The company is now run by the sons and their childhood best friend.

The current owners personally visit many small and large mines. To connect with artisanal miners in sub-Sahara Africa, they work with local Gem Dealers who travel far into the bush to buy from part-time miners. The majority of these Gem Dealers are women. Some, but not all, of their stones are labeled with country-of-origin. For those that aren’t, I ask the owners directly. As I’ve learned more about mining practices in individual countries, I have become increasingly selective about what I will purchase from them. However, they remain my preferred source for most of the stones I sell from sub-Sahara Africa.

Picture Jasper Healing, Mineralogy, and History

Published July 2014  •  Updated August 2024  •  Read Time: 5 minutes
Picture Jasper is a true jasper that typically has brown earth tones.  It sometimes has patterns that look like an old fashioned sepia landscape photograph, hence the name “picture.”  It can be found in several locations around the world, but some deposits have their own unique name like “Owyhee Jasper” which is a colorful variety found on the border of Idaho and Oregon, in the USA.  Picture Jasper is grounding, calm, meditative, and comforting.  It is a great choice for anyone who lives in a big city and suffers from Nature Deficit Disorder.  It provides a direct connection back to Mother Earth to help us regain a sense of balance in our lives and environment.

    I had a specific request for Picture Jaspers, and Julie sent me two of the most beautiful tumbled Picture Jaspers I’ve seen. She is extremely helpful and has always tried hard to accommodate my requests. I’ve purchased many stones from Julie and their energy is amazing. I love Julie’s mission to offer ethically sourced stones. I also appreciate the tea :) I can’t say enough good things about Julie and HIGHLY recommend Moonrise Crystals.
