Fossil coral cab ~
Offered here is a lovely cabochon of fossilized coral, from Indonesia. This fascinating agate material is something I don't cut frequently, though I must say I like it alot. Look closely at the big pics and you'll see that the entire stone is composed of the highly silicated fossil remains of colonial sea coral, many millions of years old! It has an unmistakeable one-of-a-kind pattern of flower-like starbursts, in earthy ivory-buff shades with accents of yellow and ochre. Some of the small triangular flecks toward the slender end appear to be translucent. This cab has a well rounded dome of 5mm, a designer 'flame' shape, and a slick glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 51x25mm
Weight: approximately 44 carats
