Nearly all Leopardskin Jasper available today is cut and drilled using petrochemicals. Such Leopardskin Jasper is not therapeutic. Our 100% natural Leopardskin Jasper is cut and shaped using only water. It displays the well-defined circular patterns required for therapeutic efficacy. Therapeutic Quality Leopardskin Jasper Therapeutic quality Leopardskin Jasper displays well-defined circular patterns that contrast sharply with the beads’ background colors. The colors of both the circles and background can vary widely from necklace to necklace. Each Leopardskin Jasper necklace is unique and can include any combination of the following tones: beige, tan, yellow, orange, red, pink, brown, gray, or black. In low-quality Leopardskin Jasper, very few circles are apparent, and the overall color looks dull and washed out. Nearly all the Leopardskin Jasper spheres available today are cut and drilled using petrochemicals, the residue of which can be often detected by a kerosene-like odor. Such Leopardskin Jasper is not therapeutic. When it is worn, the body braces itself against the energy of the chemicals and, in doing so, resists the energy of the Leopardskin Jasper itself. To be therapeutic, Leopardskin Jasper must be cut and shaped using only water. Note: Because the color of natural, therapeutic quality Leopardskin Jasper varies widely, the color shown in the first photograph may not represent our current stock. The necklace with graduated spheres shown there is currently unavailable. All available Leopardskin Jasper necklaces are made with all 6-mm, all 8-mm, or all 10-mm spheres.
