Imperial jasper cab ~
Offered here is a large designer cabochon of imperial jasper, from Mexico. This collectible porcelain material is becoming tough to come by lately, particularly this 'ojitos' variety with the best figure and color. (Ojitos means little eyes in Spanish.) This one has a subtle but gorgeous orby figure in pastel shades of pink and cream, crossed by an even more subtle 'venetian blind' pattern. And the avocado areas are highly translucent, as illustrated by the backlit photo. The stone has a very high rounded dome, a gracefully fluid shape, and a super slick glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 43x27mm
Weight: approximately 60 carats
Price: SOLD See current gemstones for sale
