Royal imperial jasper cab ~
Offered here is a distinguished cabochon of Imperial jasper, from Mexico. This collectible 'ojitos' material is simply wonderful stuff, another member of the fine grained porcelain jasper family I love so much. (Ojitos means little eyes in Spanish.) This striking example features a fascinating orbicular pattern that practically leaps out at you. The orbs are artistically arranged, with an attractive combination of blended pink, mauve, cream and tan. There is also thin pastel green band that runs around the edge, as well as a secondary pattern of subtle 'curtains'. The unique figure fits the shape of the stone quite well, and the backside has a finer-lined pattern with orbs just as beautiful. The stone has a well rounded dome of 5mm, a smooth elongated designer shape, and a super glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 58x22mm
Weight: approximately 53 carats
