Dinosaur bone cab ~
Offered here is a splendid cabochon of Utah's fossilized dinosaur bone, from Utah. This highly silicated material is many millions of years old, a marvelous example of the natural preservation of our earth's ancient, extinct 'thunder lizards'. Over millenia, the cells in this fossil bone have been replaced with crimson & red agate, and many are fortified like tiny agate thundereggs. Some show colorful cores of powder blue, yellow or even purple, and one or two include a bit of sparkle. The odd black line is a dark mineralized stain, not a flaw. Check out the enlarged photos to see the fascinating details. The light tan cell walls form a contrasting sponge-like lattice, forever frozen in time. It's an amazing piece of collectible dinosaur bone! The cab has a rounded dome of 5mm, a sweet teardrop shape, and a smooth glassy polish both front and back.
