My treat to me from the Plowshare Show


Could not resisit it -saw it wanted it. Walked over and asked the artist if she ever considered trades. Turns out she had been wondering if I would swap some yarn for something of hers :)
And here it is.
Its a beautiful nickel/silver base with copper accents topped with an oxidized rainbow jasper.
Looking up rainbow jasper this is what its properties are:

A strong protection gemstone, red jasper is known to protect against hazards of the night. Jasper is one of the oldest known gemstones. It is mentioned in the Bible several times. Jasper is a strong securing gemstone. It is a stability gemstone. It is a powerful protection against things that are not good for you and it eases emotional stresses, making it a wonderful gemstone to have in your home.

Jasper gives one the courage to speak out and have personal independence. It also protects from fears in the night. Red jasper is thought to help balance the energy in the body. All jaspers help balance the emotional energy in the body.

Healing properties of Jasper
Jasper comes in many colors. All colors of Jasper will help balance the vibrations of the body. Jasper is slow to show a change to the person, but is such a basic "good" stone that one should always have it on hand. Rainbow jasper is said to ease emotional stress. Carry rainbow jasper and feel relaxed and secure.

Very very cool!
HUGs all
