Pinolith cab ~
Offered here is a cabochon of pinolith, from a small manganese quarry in Austria's Turen Mountains. I really like the
absract flower-petal patterns in this unusual material. I'm told it is rare, and have seen a few small slabettes sell for
ridiculously high prices. Its hardness is rather on the softer side, very much like crinoid marble, though I don't think
that'll pose any problem in most jewelry. It'd be perfect as a pendant! The stone has a well rounded dome of 6mm, and it
is nicely polished both front and back.
Size: 55x23 mm
Weight: approximately 56 carats
Price: SOLD See Current Gemstone Offerings Here $52.00
