Picture Jasper — semi precious slab
Polished slab

Drag the slab to turn it, or use the arrow keys. Switching finish re-renders the surface — polished throws a hard specular, the abraded finishes open the surface up and knock the colour back.

Picture Jasper is named for what the figure does: bands and drifts that resolve into hills, horizon and sky, and it is the one material in this range people stop in front of rather than walk past. It is also the one where orientation is a decision. A slab has a way up that looks right and a way that does not, and the horizon sits where the cut put it, so mark the orientation on the slab photograph before anything is cut. We list it as a surface rather than a backlit panel: feature walls, table tops, reception desks, bar fronts, decorative objects. Polished only. It arrives as imported block through our supply partnership, is made up from cut sections and backed with fibreglass and resin, and is chosen from photographs of the actual slabs, because the picture is different on every one of them.

Petrified Wood Retro is the other material here bought for what the figure depicts — growth rings from a mineralised trunk, cut across. Its figure is concentric and turns around a centre; Picture Jasper's is horizontal and reads as landscape, so the two are not interchangeable even inside the same brown scheme.

Photographs

Picture Jasper in the yard

Photographs of our own blocks, slabs and finished work. Slab photography shows one slab — the block it came from is what you are quoted against.

Laid out

Picture Jasper across a floor

A photograph shows one slab on a stand. This shows the stone tile after tile — where the pattern repeats, how far the tone drifts across a batch, and what the joint does to it. Every tile here is cut from a different part of the surface, the way material comes out of a real crate.

Picture Jasper tile — semi-precious stone

Indicative layout. Tone drift is deliberate — no two tiles from one batch match exactly, and a laid floor should never look like one photograph repeated.

In the room

Picture Jasper against your wall colour

Nobody buys stone on a white background. Put Picture Jasper on the floor, up the wall or across a worktop, set the colour it will actually sit against, and change the light — the same three questions every client asks on a site visit, answered before the sample ships.

Surface

Picture Jasper, close up

The slab above turns; this is the same stone at the size it sits in your hand. Change the finish and it re-cuts.

Asked about this stone

Picture Jasper — questions buyers ask

Which way up does a panel hang?

The figure reads as horizon and sky, so a slab has a right way up. Mark the orientation on the slab photograph before we cut, because it cannot be corrected afterwards.

Can you get two slabs with the same picture?

No — the landscape is different on every slab, which is why this category is chosen from photographs of the actual pieces rather than from a sample. If the scheme needs a repeating pattern, this is the wrong material in the range.

Is it a backlit material?

We list it as a surface: feature walls, table tops, reception desks, bar fronts, decorative objects. The materials specified for light behind them here are the quartzes, the agates and the onyx — the three jaspers are not among them.

How does it behave on a table top?

Table tops are second on its list. Seen from above the drifts read as pattern rather than as a landscape, so the slab that works on a wall is not automatically the one you want on a table. Polished only, and not for floors or external work.
