Trent agate cab ~
Offered here is a cabochon of Trent sagenite agate, hailing only from one small dig near Trent, Oregon. This distinctive material is very rare, completely mined out long ago, prized for its wonderfully colorful figure. This agate is said to contain stibnite and realgar, which are rare minerals in their own right. Sure cuts an interesting cab, I must say! This unique stone features strong carnelian orange color that's nicely translucent, containing intricate sagenitic bursts that are subtly fortified. Those finger-like tubes are amazing, and are even more impressive when backlit. The stone has a nicely rounded dome of nearly 5mm, a designer 'flame' shape, and a super glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 58x20mm
Weight: approximately 40 carats
Price: SOLD See current gemstones for sale
