Dinosaur bone cab ~
Offered here is a cabochon of fossilized dinosaur bone, from Utah. This highly silicated material is many millions of years old, a marvelous example of the natural preservation of our earth's ancient, extinct 'thunder lizards'. Over millennia, the cells in this fossil bone have been completely replaced with shades of bluish-gray to purplish-gray agate, with reddish-brown shading in nearly all. The cell walls are now a contrasting shade of light tan, forever frozen in time. The stone does show a bit of translucence, and a couple of sparkly crystalline pools for added character; please click the pics to view the closer shots. The cab has a well rounded dome of 5mm, and a designer 'flame' shape, finished with a glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 55x25mm
Weight: approximately 53 carats
Price: SOLD See current gemstones for sale
