Lucky find of ojitos imperial nodules!!
This sampling old stock imperial jasper (below) was the highlight of our haul from Tucson 2011, for me. I haven’t seen such fabulous nodules available in years, and heard it was all but mined out long ago. The gunny sack full we purchased was part of an old horde from several decades back, and I am THRILLED to have it!

Here’s an extra fancy stone cut from one of the nodules:
Exciting stuff, for sure! If you appreciate orby imperial jasper as much as I do, please be sure to watch for the upcoming cabs over the next few months. You won’t be disappointed!
