I've been collecting various scenic and picture jaspers for many years, 40 or more. They fascinate me. It's sometimes difficult for me to set them in jewelry because when I do and they sell I don't get to look at them any more. Pretty weird I guess for someone who makes their living making and selling jewelry. But there it is. This looked like a desert landscape to me so I used a diamond drill to bore a hole in it and riveted on the copper sun shape. At the top is a fresh water pearl. Metals are silver, copper and 14k gold. The jasper is owyhee picture jasper from Oregon which is a treasure land of diverse gemstones.
