Red jasper is a stone of many meanings and historical ties, said to hold powerful physical and spiritual protection. In ancient Egypt, red jasper stone was linked to the fertility of Mother Isis and Native Americans believed that red jasper was the blood of Mother Earth. Legend says that jasper would drive away evil spirits, protect against snake and spider bites, and even bring about rain! Today it is known as a lucky charm for actors and is favoured for its metaphysical properties as much as its beautiful red colouring. This beautiful Heart shaped Red Jasper is 3cm x cm approx and is mounted on an ornate Silver Clasp. It is suspended from an 18 Inch Silver Plated chain. This is the perfect stone for an Aries, as they are known to be independent - impulsive - brave.
