Description
~ Luna agate cab ~

Offered here is a cabochon of collectible luna agate, from Mexico. This classic material showed up at this year's Tucson show, but I can't tell you if this old favorite is being actively mined again or not; I hope so, but meanwhile, I'm just glad to have it! This gemmy, translucent example shows a few well defined bullseyes and orbs, along with some beautifully wild fortification banding. The color, I am told, comes from fluorite, giving this one delicate purple shades. The stone has a nicely rounded dome of 7mm, and a slick glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 43x23mm
Weight: approximately 50 carats
