Inferno agate cab ~
Offered here is an extraordinary collector's cabochon of Mexican inferno agate, mined near the Laguna agate digs. This example has a lot going on in its busy flaming patterns, including an impressive showing of crimson/red flame-like plumes, and dark burgundy/red mosses. I find the golden butterscotch areas particularly attractive, along with the gemmy translucence. The stone is well composed and rather fascinating, reminding me of a Japanese painting of, say, the fiery birthplace of dragons. Absolutely awesome stuff! You'll be well pleased, no doubt. The cab has a nicely rounded dome of 5.5mm, and a designer 'wedge' shape, with a smooth glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 51x32mm
Weight: approximately 59 carats
