Royal Imperial Jasper is a subtle pretty colored Jasper from Mexico. It comes from north of the border between Jalisco and Zacatecas, Mexico about 50 miles north of the city of Guadalajara.
Both Royal Imperial and Imperial Jasper are found on the east side of a steep canyon covered in thick vegetation.
Royal Imperial Jasper is found in small nodules with a soft white chalky "skin".
The material is considered a fine porcelain jasper and it makes wonderful patterned, unique cabochons with a great polish.
The Royal Imperial Jasper is known for having a high percentage of the “egg” pattern. What makes this deposit so unusual is that it is the finest, largest deposit with egg patterning known in the world to date.
