The listing, Wascoite Stone has ended.

Wascoite is petrified lake bed from Wasco, Oregon. The Native Americans in the area used it for making arrowheads and tools, it was re-discovered by a prospector who became curious about the pit the Indians had dug to get the material out. Wascoite is generaly thought of as a picture jasper. Formed in concentric, irregular circles with shades of tan, lavender, yellow, pink, and red. There was also a brown & white veriety, referred to as a bedded jasper from the Wasco, Oregon area. Some would clasify this type as a Jasper Agate. There are some pretty famous Picture Jasper slabs that have been cut from Wascoite. This piece is 1.5" at the widest point and 1" at the narrowest point. It's a beautiful piece. Add it to your rock collection or use it in Pagan or Wiccan rituals.
