Description
~ Butterfly wing jasper cab ~

Offered here is a sweet cabochon of butterfly wing jasper, from Mexico. This long time favorite brecciated jasper is a much sought after classic, and mighty tough to come by these days, in any quality. For the record, it is NOT the same thing as the newer fantasy jasper found in the vicinity, although there are some similarities. Please visit my 'sold' gallery, where you'll surely discern the difference. This cab is an excellent example of grand old material, full of colorfully varied figure; that alone makes it a great favorite around here. Any odd lines in the stone are either totally and naturally healed or simply part of the pattern, so you just can't go wrong with this beauty; it definitely won't disappoint! The cab has a low but nicely rounded dome of 5mm, a designer 'flame' shape, and a slick glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 54X27mm
Weight: approximately 47 carats

Price: $42.00
