Poppy Jasper Desert Dusk Necklace

Poppy jasper is a brecciated jasper with circular red and orange patterns on a cream or gray ground, sourced primarily from Morgan Hill, California. The patterning results from silica infilling fractures in the original stone. High visual interest per square millimeter.

Brick red and cream poppy jasper tablets sit in symmetrical rows across a beaded lattice. Pink glass leaf beads run along the base. At the center, a single drop for symmetry. The warm palette reads differently under candlelight than it does in afternoon sun. That is the nature of the stone.

Pair it with a deep oxblood silk blouse, a charcoal wool sheath, or a black linen dress. A deep V or scoop neck gives the rows room to lay.

For weddings, milestone dinners, or any evening where the dress code says be seen.
