Indian Blanket Rock Slab 06

Indian Blanket Jasper comes from Enterprise, Utah and may be made up of chert, jasper, agate or opalite.  It has been almost impossible to find any rough the last few years. Colors vary greatly presenting bold and interesting patterns in reds, browns and yellows offset by the pale pink and cream colors.  It is very difficult to find quality material that does not include pits and fractures however, it is well worth the effort as the cabochons are spectacular.
