Carnelian agate cab ~
Offered here is a sweet cabochon of carnelian agate, which hails from South America. That's all that was written on the tape clinging to the nodule I got in an estate sale. It certainly cut some fabulous slices! This cab features translucent orange coloration, with deeper crimson-orange razor fine ribbons on edge curving through it. Some of the bands have black overtones, like some Brazilian agates I've worked with. The backlit picture reveals the figure quite well, so please be sure to click it up to full size. I think this stone is nicer than these photos show, and know you'll be pleased with it! The cab has an extra high rounded dome of about 4mm, a crisp designer shape, and an excellent glassy polish, slick as can be, both front and back.
Size: 52x24mm
Weight: approximately 36 carats
