Description
~ Stone Canyon jasper ~

Offered here is a striking cabochon of classic Stone Canyon jasper, from California. It is fine example of brecciated stone, which means the original ochre-yellow jasper was once broken apart by some powerful earth movement, and then naturally re-cemented with contrasting burgundy-red agate. Even though the stone is quite substantial, at nearly 8mm thick, the agate has a nice degree of translucency in those infilled areas, for terrific added depth. There are a couple neat drusy pockets, too. In all the years I've been cabbing, this is the nicest patterned, most beautifully colored Stone Canyon jasper I've ever had to work with! The stone has a graceful designer drop shape, and a super slick glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 50x22mm
Weight: approximately 62 carats
