~ Marra Mamba tigereye
cab ~
Here
is a premium cabochon of rare Marra Mamba
tigereye, from Australia. This startling material
is, in my opinion, the most awesome tigereye in
the world, and this little gem's a splendid
example of the finest quality. It features
amazingly colorful pearly chatoyance in blended
hues of blue, coral, orange, and green, nearly a
rainbow, that rolls and flashes through the stone.
Streaks of red, too, and detailed areas of shiny
metallic hematite. Oriented a certain way, the
stone seems oddly scenic, with one patch of
hematite that looks like a bush or tree, standing
in front of the 'chatoyance' of an aurora borealis
sky. There's some jasper in this one, adding
nicely to the colorful display, in deepest navy
blue, ochre and blood red. The cab has a high
rounded dome of 6mm, a gracefully fluid designer
shape, and a glassy polish both front and back.
