Blue agate cab ~
Offered here is a delicious cabochon of blue agate, also known as blue chalcedony, from Namibia. The price of rough material this nice has skyrocketed in recent years, but I'd buy it anyway because I find it fascinating! This stone features lovely translucent bluish purple coloration, along with some interesting white dots and clouds at one side. The highly polished shape causes light to bounce around wonderfully in this stone, and at certain angles, it does appear to have some interesting adularescence. It's almost opalescent, and certainly very gemmy! Like a lot of blue agates, this stone tends to be moody, appearing even more intense and deeper in color when viewed in low lighting. It has a high rounded dome of 7mm, a crisp designer 'chevron' shape, and a brilliant glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 46x21mm
Weight: approximately 43 carats
