Picture Jasper Stud Earring, Solid Sterling Silver, New Mexico Picture Jasper, Natural Stone W/O Baker egg The included 20 inch chainThe stones in these earrings are picture jasper from New Mexico. The patterns in these are agate like and the color is very unique. This picture jasper is a soft stone that polishes to a light satin rather than the glossy look you get from agate. I crafted the settings using solid sterling and fine silver (. 925 and . 999). They are about 9 mm across. The posts are about 10 mm long.
