Turquoise cab ~
Offered here is an interesting cabochon of spiderweb turquoise, from China. This one has a rather different coloration, subtly mottled, and shading to brown toward the pointed end. What sets it off is the jet black matrix forming the webs. No doubt the material has been stabilized by some hardening process, as is most modern turquoise, but I don't believe it has been subjected to artificial coloring of any kind. It polished like a dream, and will wear wonderfully, without changing over the years. The cab has a nicely rounded dome of 6mm, a fun designer shape, and a smooth glossy polish both front and back.
Size: 41x28mm
Weight: approximately 39 carats
Price: SOLD See current gemstones for sale
