Fossil coral cab ~
Offered here is a cabochon of colorful fossilized coral, from Indonesia. This fascinating material is something you don't see too often, particularly in these lovely pink and yellow colors, and I must say I like it alot. Without enlarging the pics, one can clearly see the stone's unmistakeable one-of-a-kind pattern of flower-like starbursts, hence the name 'flowers of the sea', as it is sometimes known. It is composed of the highly silicated fossil remains of colonial sea coral, many millions of years old! This cab has a high rounded dome of 7mm, an elegantly sleek designer shape, and despite a few negligible micro pits, it has a glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 61x22mm
Weight: approximately 50 carats
