Sard Jasper Bowl and Plate
This sard jasper bowl with plate is a piece carved from one of the warmest and most elegant varieties of jasper. Its brown, reddish and orange tones, sometimes crossed by lighter veins, give it an earthy, serene beauty that blends with any setting. The bowl and plate together form a piece that is both functional and decorative.
Each piece is unique and unrepeatable: the pattern of the veins, the blend of tones and the intensity of the colour vary from one to another, the result of the mineral's natural formation over thousands of years. It comes from Brazil, one of the richest regions in the world for high-quality jaspers.

What is sard jasper?
Sard jasper is a variety of jasper characterised by its warm tones ranging from brown to reddish. Like all jaspers, it is a compact, opaque microcrystalline quartz, greatly appreciated since Antiquity for carving decorative and everyday objects, thanks to its hardness and the beauty of its earthy colours.
How to care for your piece
- Clean it with a soft, damp cloth, and dry it well after use.
- Avoid knocks and drops: although jasper is hard, the edges of the bowl and plate can chip.
- Do not expose it to sudden changes in temperature, as these could create stress within the stone.
- To enhance its shine, a gentle polish with a dry cloth from time to time is enough.
A mineral with history
Jasper has accompanied humanity for millennia. Egyptians, Greeks and Romans carved it into amulets, seals and ornamental objects, and its name appears in ancient texts from many cultures. A sard jasper bowl and plate continue that tradition today, bringing a natural, warm and timeless touch to any space.
Curiosities
- They say jasper is the stone of calm and perseverance, a good companion for those seeking stability in their daily life.
- Its earthy tones are reminiscent of clay and desert landscapes, and some associate it with the feeling of having your feet firmly planted on the ground.
- The name "sard" has traditionally been linked to the ancient city of Sardis, a nod to its long history.
- As a carved piece, you won't find two jasper bowls alike: each vein tells its own story.
- If you turn the piece in the light, you'll see how the different tones seem to merge into one another, as if the stone had a depth of its own.
