About the stones in this Necklace: Red (or Cherry) Creek Jasper exhibits a gorgeous colorful combination of tan, a variety of reds, golden yellow, teal and sage greens—all swirled between a striking pattern of dark lightning-like streaks. This colorful stone comes from the Cherry Creek Mine in Mainland China, which is nearby a creek named Red Creek, hence its name! Sometimes this lovely stone is called Picasso Jasper because it shows streaking similar to the black streaks found in the Picasso Marble from Utah. The Red Creek Jasper is teamed with Moukaite, Ocean Jasper, and African Yellowstone to create a series of three matching necklaces. Miriam particularly likes how the African Yellowstone shows a landscape-like pattern, which is also seen in the Moukaite and Ocean Jasper she used in the collection of three necklaces—which is available as a set with special discount pricing.
