Ocean jasper is a rare, semiprecious gemstone that's a variety of jasper with spherical inclusions, also known as orbs or spherulites. The orbs can be many colors, including white, pink, green, red, and yellow, and can create swirls that look like sea foam or spray. Ocean jasper is also known as orbicular jasper and fisheye jasper.
Ocean jasper comes from a silicified rhyolite flow on the northwest coast of Madagascar, near the village of Marovato. The name Marovato means "many stones" in Malagasy.
Ocean jasper is valued for its appearance, rarity, and the spiritual meaning that some believe it has. It's known as the "stone of connection" because the circular patterns are said to symbolize connection and oneness with others. Some also believe that ocean jasper can promote emotional healing and balance, and encourage feelings of tranquility and inner peace.

Ocean jasper is a semi-precious gemstone that can be found in northwestern Madagascar, exclusively along the ocean coastline. The ore is located in remote areas near the towns of Ambolobozo and Marovato, where mines are only accessible during low tide. During this time, miners use boats to dig up the jasper, which is then transported to small boats by ox-drawn carts and sailed to the nearest town for shipping to a factory.
The jasper from the Marovato mine comes in a wide range of colors, while the material from the Kabamby mine is usually dark green and golden yellow, but can also be cream or red. Ocean jasper is believed to be from the Cretaceous period, around 63–135 million years old, and has wavy patterns or orbs of colors such as green-gray, white, cream, beige, brown, pink, and maroon.
