Description
~ Seraphinite cab ~

Offered here is a pleasing cabochon cut from seraphinite, which hails from Russia's Lake Baikal area in eastern Siberia. Seraphinite is technically clinoclore, a gemmy form of chlorite in mica. It is very reminiscent of charoite, another Russian material, though it has beautiful shades of green with radiating fern-like patterns of paler green and silver, rather than purple. Like charoite, it has marked depth and flashy chatoyance, and this one is a particularly nice example. This large stone has a well rounded dome of 6+mm, a fun designer shape, with a slick glossy polish both front and back.

Size: 49x26mm
Weight: approximately 46 carats
