Shell Jasper

Description:

Shell Jasper, also known as Shell Marble or Shell Obsidian, is a sedimentary stone composed of fossilised shell fragments and limestone, compressed over time into a strikingly layered stone. It is typically cream, beige, grey, or black with natural banding or swirling patterns that resemble the ocean or ancient earth.

Though not a traditional jasper, it shares similar stabilising and protective properties, and its earthy tones and fossil inclusions connect it deeply to nature and ancient wisdom.

Healing Benefits:

Shell Jasper is a stone of protection, stability, and inner strength. It has a calming, grounding energy that helps to centre the mind and body during periods of stress, overwhelm, or emotional turbulence. It supports endurance and promotes the strength to face life’s challenges with confidence and resilience.

This stone is especially helpful for those who feel scattered or disconnected, bringing balance and a renewed sense of purpose. It encourages self-discipline and perseverance, making it an ideal companion during long-term goals or personal growth work.

Shell Jasper also assists in shielding against negative energy and environmental stress, while promoting a steady, nurturing energy flow throughout the body. It is believed to support bone health, muscle function, and the detoxification process.
