Description
~ Imperial jasper cab ~

Offered here is a splendid cabochon of Imperial jasper, from Mexico. This collectible 'ojitos' (little eyes) material is the best of the best. This pattern in this remarkable stone reminds me of a head of lettuce, though it's really orbs stacked atop one another. It is a study in various pastel shades of mauve, pink and even hints of yellow, the colors becoming darker toward the edges. No fractures at all, just natural pattern. The stone has a low dome of nearly 5mm, a softly rounded designer shape, and a brilliantly glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 38x35mm
Weight: approximately 48 carats
