Description
~ Butterfly wing jasper cab ~

Offered here is a 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, though there are some similarities. Please visit my 'sold' gallery, where you'll easily discern the difference. This cab is an outstanding example of grand old material, chock full of colorfully varied figure, including a pool of smoky agate. Any odd lines 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 nicely rounded dome of 5mm, and a slick glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 39x23mm
Weight: approximately 40 carats
