“Bumblebee jasper” is the familiar trade name for this vividly banded, carbonate-rich stone; it is not a true quartz jasper. Display it as a specimen or consider it for a carefully planned lapidary project. The clear stand in the photographs is for display only and is not included.

Handling: Bumblebee material may contain arsenic-bearing minerals. Avoid making or breathing dust; do not dry cut, grind or sand it. If you work the stone, use appropriate wet methods, dust control and protective equipment. Wash hands after handling and keep away from children and pets. Do not use for food or water contact.
