petrified wood cab ~
Offered here is a cabochon of petrified wood, an unsual and rare form from Hell's Canyon near the Idaho/Oregon border. (You can read more about this material on my blog.) It is said to be sequoia, showing a fascinating herringbone pattern. Great contrasting lines, each representing a year's seasonal growth in the once-living tree. It also has various sized pools and holes lined with translucent milky or clear agate, or (common) opal. Most are filled solid. Be sure to click to enlarge the photos to see the details. I'm no expert on pet wood, but this material seems opalized, and it certainly is GORGEOUS! This cab has a well rounded dome of 6mm, an elongated designer 'catseye' shape, and a slick glassy polish both front and back.
