A new material out of Brazil and I haven't seen ANY other lapidaries cutting this stuff! It's a green serpentine with vibrant white veins of chatoyant (cats eye) stripes! The few Chinese dealers selling it call it Green Zebra Jasper, but it's NOT a jasper. Very beautiful and unusual, but it's soft, so don't bang it ...around against hard surfaces. Cuts and polishes like butter!
Check out the listing in my eBay store GREEN ZEBRA TIGEREYE STONE!

I was wondering, without being able to cut into the stone, is there a way to know the difference between green zebra jasper and the green serpentine with white stripes? They look remarkably the same, except the jasper has more "round" markings inside the green, but some serpentine does too...
Thanks.
