Red jasper is a semi-precious gemstone that is finding increasing favour among Zimbabwean sculptors. All colour and texture within the stone is entirely natural.

Overseas shipping is from Zimbabwe via airfreight;
P&P at buyer’s expense.
Unsurprisingly, freight from Zimbabwe can be expensive. Therefore, as a rough guideline, we would advise you budget around $1,000 for the shipping costs.
