Gary Green Jasper, also known as Larsonite or McDermitt Bog Agate and more recently Caldera Jasper and now Freedom Jasper, is a beautiful greenish layered and swirled material formed when silica-rich fluids filtered through rhyolite ash, precipitating jasper along with other elements that give it the unique colors. Originally, the tight layering of the rhyolite was thought to be petrified wood from a swamp full of trees, cattails, algae and other material was buried by a volcanic event about 12 million years ago. However, recent research indicates that no plant material is present. The rhyolite is associated with the McDermitt Caldera, a large volcano that violently erupted numerous times throughout its history, depositing thick layers of ash. The McDermitt Volcano is along the same line as the Yellowstone Caldera.

Why Argentium Sterling Silver?
Purer:
Argentium sets new purity standards for silver. Argentium is always purer than traditional sterling silver.
Natural Beauty:
Plating is prone to wear and tear and is commonly used on silver items to give the temporary illusion of purity. Argentium is the natural color of pure silver through and through.
Brighter:
Argentium silver is brighter than platinum, white gold and traditional sterling silver. It is the whitest of them all.
Longer lasting shine:
Argentium silver is low maintenance, easy to care for and simple to keep clean.
Responsible:
Argentium guarantees traceability of its raw silver. It is certified that Argentium is produced using only recycled silver.
