This makes Jasper a stone that does not need to be combined much else. Jasper can be used for unique pieces that will stand out and add a touch of flavour.
5. Tiger Eye
Tiger Eye is a favourite among the protective stones. It is also known to have healing and clearing properties. Similar to Jasper, Tiger Eye is a naturally patterned stone. With shades ranging from golden yellows to deep reds, and with stripes in shimmering golds and browns, the warm tones in Tiger Eye make this a must have gemstone bead. Tiger Eye has a standalone beauty; however it can be stunningly matched with shades of green.
