Description
~ Feather Ridge plume agate cab ~

Offered here is a large, deluxe cabochon cut from Feather Ridge plume agate, which was recently mined in Oregon. This example boasts a delightful array of plume figures in colorful hues ranging from shades of pink to blood red, through salmon orange, pastel peach and golden yellow, with snow white, suspended in a very translucent background, which displays them all to the fullest. The coloration is strongly reminiscent of grand old regency rose plume agate from Graveyard Point, which is mined about 10 miles away, comparing very well to the best I've seen. And it cut like a dream to boot! Feather Ridge plume agate ought to look splendid set in silver, but I think the contrasting richness of gold would be especially tasty. Try it, you'll love it! This cab has a nicely rounded dome of 5+mm, a designer teardrop shape, and a fine glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 52x28mm
Weight: approximately 63 carats
