Description
~ Petrified wood cab ~

Offered here is a fine cabochon of petrified wood, classic old stock material from Arizona. The intriguing patterning is due to the agate replacement of the once living wood, though a hint of the grain is still apparent here and there. I'm fairly sure the species is Auricaria. This colorful example has areas of crimson, orange, bluish purple, black and white, with next to none of the typical fractures pet wood so often has. It's even nicer in hand, simply gorgeous! It's bound to look grand in most any custom setting, or in your aggie collection. The cab has a very high rounded dome of 7.5mm, a gracefully fluid drop shape, and a super glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 50x23mm
Weight: approximately 58 carats
