Kaleidoscope Jasper is a rare and visually diverse jasper from Oregon, known for its incredible range of colors, formations, and organic inclusions. Many varieties of Kaleidoscope are believed to be bog wood formations, often containing fossilized organic debris, including wood fragments and other plant material. With over a dozen known varieties discovered across different deposits, every Kaleidoscope stone is truly one-of-a-kind. The original mine was operated by Dale Rhode, and each year of digging revealed exciting new varieties, many of which are now considered fully depleted.
