~ Marra Mamba tigereye
cab ~
Here
is a splendid cabochon of rare Marra Mamba
tigereye, from Australia. This startling material
is, in my opinion, the most awesome tigereye in
the world, hands down. This fine example is a
great, HUGE carbuncle of a stone, a centerpiece to
treasure if ever I saw one! It features colorful
flashing chatoyance in blended hues of midnight
blue and sunset salmon-red, with hints of green
and gold. At one side are several bands of shiny
metallic hematite and orange jasper which, because
of the way the stone is cut, form part of a
bullseye. At the other side are 'fingers' of
orange-ochre and rich brown jasper. It's an
amazing stone, truly unique, though the high
rounded dome of 12mm made it a real challenge to
capture. It has a designer 'paisley' shape, and a
glassy polish both front and back.
