📝 Material Overview, History, and Geology
Kaleidoscope Jasper is a rare and visually diverse jasper from Oregon, known for its incredible range of colors, formations, and organic inclusions. Unlike traditional seam or vein jaspers, Kaleidoscope was found in small, isolated pockets, sometimes just feet apart, making it extremely difficult and unproductive to mine. This scarcity contributed to the low volume that ever reached the market.

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.

Some varieties are more rhyolitic in texture and may contain natural pits or fractures, while others are highly silicated and take an excellent polish. Because of its immense variation, it is important to inspect each piece carefully, but more often than not, the patterns are so stunning that collectors and lapidarists consider it well worth the effort to work around any flaws.

📏 Additional Notes
Natural Stone: These are rough stones, 100% natural. Expect natural fractures, inclusions, or pits formed during creation - these are part of its geological character, not flaws.
Photos: All photos are taken wet to show potential color and pattern once polished. This material is not polished.
