Indonesia
22.46 x 13.70 x 6.09 mm

This vivid cabochon of Bumblebee Jasper from Indonesia weighs 19.62-carats and displays a bold interplay of golden yellow, orange, and smoky gray tones. The polished surface reveals fluid transitions of color, highlighted by fine black veining and scattered crystalline inclusions. Composed primarily of Sulfur, Calcite, and Hematite, this material forms in the geothermal vents of active volcanoes, resulting in its distinctive patterns and intense hues. The rectangular shape emphasizes the stone's vertical flow of color and natural depth. This is a visually striking gemstone with unmistakable character.
