AAA Grade Kambaba Jasper Stones

Three of the finest grade kambaba jasper gemstones.  These pieces were cut from rough for Stone Mania.

The front of each stone has been beautifully polished.  The back has been polished for smoothness so has a dull lustre. 

Gemstones with a dull lustre absorb light.  Stones with a vitreous lustre reflect light in a similar way to glass.

The size of these kambaba jasper stones is extra large.

Kambaba jasper is also known as crocodile jasper, green stromatolite jasper and occasionally star galaxy jasper.  The name star galaxy jasper was created by stone cutters in Jaipur in India where many of the world's gemstones are cut and polished.

In Madagascar where this material is found it's also known as kabamba after the area where it was discovered.
