Rodney sent me some of the new Poppy Jasper he found. Here is the first cab I made from it. Took a good polish, looks like a nebula or something

It looks like this material has it all - color, contrast and pattern. You did a nice job on the cab too. I think this cab would look splendid in a gold wrap. Garry

That is a very beautiful stone. Any trouble with pitting/undercutting?

That really looks beautiful! You did a great job with it! I have only cut a couple of slabbetts of the stuff but not any preforms yet. I will have to move it to the head of the line! Fran

That is a very beautiful stone. Any trouble with pitting/undercutting? There were some pits, much like all the other Poppy Jaspers I have worked. The material did not undercut.
