Bumblebee jasper is one of the most striking stones in the case. Bright yellow, deep black, sometimes a thread of orange running through it. The pattern looks exactly like its name. People pick it up because they can't not.
It's a creative stone. Bring one out when you're starting a project that needs you to be willing to be seen. Set one on the table during brainstorming. Slip one in your pocket on the day you're going to pitch the idea.
A note on handling: bumblebee jasper contains sulfur and traces of arsenic and is fine to hold and display, but it should not be left in water, ingested, or used to make elixirs. Wash hands after extended handling.
Color varies with bright yellow bands and natural pattern variation piece to piece. You'll be sent the one intuitively chosen for you.
