Deschutes jasper cab ~
Offered here is a cabochon of Deschutes jasper, from Oregon. A treasured favorite in the celebrated family of porcelain jaspers, classic old material like this has become quite collectible and pricey these days, when one can find any to buy. This scenic example features a detailed hilly pattern in richly contrasting earth tones of peachy tans and reddish browns, with a grayish 'sky' above. Nice dendrites too, adding some foliage. The earthy colors look terrific in a setting of silver, though this jasper is certainly worthy of gold; the choice is yours! The cab has a low but nicely rounded dome of 4mm, a crisp designer 'arrowhead' shape, and a fine glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 35x30mm
Weight: approximately 32 carats
