Sarape Jasper (also spelled Serape Jasper) is a colorful variety of jasper mined in Mexico, closely associated with the same region that produces Crazy Lace Agate. Sometimes marketed as Red Zebra Jasper, it gets its name from the vibrant striped patterns reminiscent of traditional Mexican sarape blankets. This material often features intricate red, black, and cream banding caused by high iron content, and its strong visual movement makes it a standout in the lapidary world. Sarape Jasper is typically highly silicated and takes an excellent polish. With material becoming increasingly scarce, it’s a bold and collectible choice for cabbing and display.

All of the stones and fossils offered here are natural materials formed over millions of years through geological and organic processes. As a result, it is completely normal for them to exhibit natural fractures, pits, inclusions, voids, and other surface or internal features that reflect their ancient origins.
These characteristics are not flaws—they are part of what makes each piece unique. We encourage you to review all product photos carefully and research the properties of each material before purchasing to ensure it meets your expectations.

To best showcase the color, pattern, and potential of each stone, most photos are taken with the material wet to simulate the appearance of a polished finish. The final photo is taken dry to help highlight any natural surface imperfections such as fractures, pits, or voids. Please review all images carefully before purchasing.
