Well, I took a look,and don't know._

That's one out of the last *"TWO", ~lol, required I'll be seeking! ((Now, to go look Up t/name of the otha' one, I canNot re-Call it, ..hmm..._))

Hi Smokey!
It's not so complicated... It always worked for me. Besides all that things, the "jasper effect" of the design (random, irregular pattern) is one of the powerful tools. Agate almost always shows stripes of colour, or at least sprinkles in paralel shape!

<edit-to-add> Pardon, please!( I stand Corrected!)
That was a Rain "Forest" jasper I needed (from the above post)... Not a "rainBOW" jasper! Its' description says "connection to nature spirits". (Now I see why its important in some of my shaman & astral studies!)
*The other Re is "shaman stone". Egad!
*(How'd I forget the name of THat One, lol! ~Shame on Me,HA!)

Gaby good information there. I find it interesting that the green jasper that is polished looks just like jade in that color. Makes on wonder if some jade is not jasper.

thanks for the info! i love stones! i m a total amber freak (i have family off the baltic sea and they send me alot, both raw and set in ss)and i love onyax but lately i have had hard time finding onyax i like. But i have been looking at new stones that i like so i can like expand more on my likes. hmm that makes no since, he hee. like a jewler freind of mine has some red stones that i now think r red jasper, i think i will have him set someting for me and see how i like that sort of stone. I think i m might scan in pics of the stones i have and the stone jewelry so like i can get someone to help me idetify what they are.

Yes, Cat, it's very usual to find people who sells jasper or some kind of agate instead of jade (I know that because I was reading a lot of complains on Internet...) That seems to be one of the sellers favorite "mistakes"
