Vintage best Orbicular Ocean Jasper Statement Earrings

Gorgeous round cabochon Ocean Jasper earrings

These 1980's vintage gemstone earrings are exemplary of the change from past small, dainty jewelry trends to big and bold pieces. Without losing elegance and sophistication, newly empowered working women could buy luxurious jewelry for themselves and make a statement about their accomplishments. Wearing a large piece of statement jewelry did more than just show a woman's tastes - it announced her financial independence and success in the world.

Natural Ocean Jasper, also known as Orbicular Jasper or best Cellular Jasper, is a very rare variety of Jaspery. This unusual mineral has only one known locality in Madagascar that offers extreme obstacles to access. It is mined from the base of a cliff only accessible by boat during low tide.

Ocular stones, those that look like eyes, have a consistent meaning over time, including the following:
- Safety: Warding off the evil eye, security, and remaining unseen from enemies.
- Prosperity: Good luck, seeing opportunities, and overcoming obstacles in business.
- Second Sight: Clairvoyance, insight, and focus during meditation.
