Marra mamba cab ~
Offered here is a premium cabochon of genuine Marra Mamba tigereye, a rarity from Australia. This startling material is, in my opinion, the most awesome tigereye in the world, and this gem's a fine example. It features a gorgeous patch of dancing pearly chatoyance in mostly blue, with a bit of pale golden yellow. They mix to show a hint of green where the two colors touch. The remainder is colorful jasper and artful slashes of shiny metallic hematite and magnetite. This material can be very problematic to cut, but happily, I can find no cracks, fractures, pits or other blemishes. The cab has a high rounded dome of 6.5mm, a 'chevron' shape, and it has an excellent polish both front and back.
Size: 54x25mm
Weight: approximately 72 carats
