Description
~ Crinoid marble cab ~

Offered here is an intriguing cabochon of crinoid marble, ancient material from China. This one is a colorfully crazy patchwork of figures in light and dark pink, cream, gray and black. The truly unique pattern is made up of the stems of fossilized plants called crinoids, which collected on the sea floor and were compressed into solid marble over millenia. Amazing stuff! No marble or fossil collection is complete without some crinoid marble, and this cab would be a fascinating centerpiece in any type of jewelry creation you can imagine. It has a very high rounded dome of 8.5mm, a bold designer shape, and a fine glossy polish both front and back.

Size: 58x21mm
Weight: approximately 89 carats
