Apache jasper cab ~
Offered here is a designer cabochon of Apache jasper, actually a rhyolite, also known as Mimbres Valley jasper, after the location where it's found in New Mexico. This fabulous material just smacks of southwest flavor, with its strong resemblance to the old west's sagebrush dotted desertscapes. This particular example has rather scenic dendritic foliage, in shades of deep maroon and dusty rose pink. The stone has a high rounded dome of 5+mm, a designer teardrop shape, and a great glossy polish both front and back.
Size: 41x24mm
Weight: approximately 40 carats
Price: SOLD See current gemstones for sale
