This beaded, hand loomed Blue Impression Jasper has five 12x16 mm stones woven into the bracelet across the top of the looming. The Impression Jasper is more teal than blue, but that's still the name of the stone. Two different finishes of teal seed beads, matte and transparent, along with dark khaki seed beads, are loomed to mimic the patterns in the stones. The different finishes give the bracelets a nice visual texture. The colors compliment and echo the colors of the Blue Impression Jasper.

I made this bracelet by looming the base, then adding a beaded picot edge. After I removed it from the loom, I added the five Blue Impression Jasper stones.

This bracelet will fit a 7 inch (17.78cm.) wrist. It closes with a peyote toggle and loop closure. Each end of the toggle has a 4mm teal blue fire polished Czech crystal to add a little bit of extra sparkle.

Jasper is believed to be associated with relaxation, contentment, compassion, tranquillity and healing. It is also believed that Jasper helps with organizational skills.
