Turquoise cab ~
Offered here is a cabochon of spiderweb turquoise, from China. This example has aqua blue coloration accentuated by edgings of olive green, set off by the jet black matrix forming the webs. No doubt this material has been stabilized by some hardening process, as is most modern turquoise, but I don't believe it has been subjected to artificial coloring of any kind. It polished like a dream, and will wear wonderfully, without changing over the years. The cab has a beautifully rounded dome of 4.5mm, a triangular pillow shape, and a smooth glossy polish both front and back.
Size: 32x23mm
Weight: approximately 20 carats
