Queensland agate cab ~
Offered here is a cabochon of Queensland agate, from Australia's famous Agate Creek agate beds. This delightful stone is a richly vibrant orange, reminding me a lot of some carnelian I got from Chehalis, Oregon. It even has a few cornflakes in the center, surrounded by subtly shaded bands that follow the shape of the stone. I'm told the orange color is due to the presence of iron, which sets these Down Under agates apart from many of their plainer cousins. This stone will certainly be equally pleasing in either a silver or gold setting, or whatever else you might conjure up! It has a low rounded dome of 4mm, a versatile shape, and a fabulously glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 50x17mm
Weight: approximately 31 carats
