Description
~ Royal Sahara jasper cab ~

Offered here is a splendid cabochon of the new Royal Sahara jasper, recently found in the North African Sahara desert. This amazing porcelain material cuts truly amazing stones, and sometimes it has unusual colors too. Like this astonishingly scenic example with its rosy pink-hued sunset sky. The details are all there: From the rolling hills in the background, to the red sun hanging over the cultivated rows of farmer John's valley, to the silhouetted bushes in the foreground... WOW! There's even a stylized bird on the wing across the sun, though that teensy area is ever so slightly matte in finish. Royal Sahara jasper just bowls me over; it's an INSTANT CLASSIC by my lights. Whether you're a collector or a custom jewelry designer, try it and you'll see, this stuff is pure magic. This stone has a gently rounded dome of 7mm, and a puffed triangular shape that frames the remarkable pattern wonderfully well, polished both front and back.

Size: 40x39mm
Weight: approximately 63 carats
