Lion Figurine Carving Jasper Stone Animal Totem
This unique hand carved light green with black spots carved stone lion figurine is 8.5 inches long and 2.8 inches wide and 4.33 inches tall.
This semiprecious gemstone material is named both Sesame Jasper and Kiwi Jasper-both names derived from its appearance.
However, as is common in the rock world, this material is not a jasper. It's Amazonite, which is a microcline feldspar. The black spots are tourmaline and it has spots of quartz too.
The stone is found in New Zealand.
The LION inspires strength, courage, pride, nobility, and fairness. Because of the lion's noble character, it represents the great power of self-control. The Egyptians saw the lion as a symbol of power and wealth. In Singapore, a lion and tiger are depicted on the coat of arms of “the city of lions.” The lion is a traditional symbol of Spain and of Great Britain.
