Description
~ Dinosaur bone cab ~

Offered here is a cabochon of 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 millennia, the cells in this fossil bone have been completely replaced with translucent gel that has a reddish tint. Each cell is framed by a web of the actual cell walls, now tan, beige and gray, forever frozen in time. Most are colorful crimson and red, with a few bright yellow cells, and some ghostly blue 'cores', making them look like tiny fortified agates, which they are! Please click the pics to view the closer shots. The cab has a low rounded dome of 5mm, a plump designer drop shape, and an excellent glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 48x25mm
Weight: approximately 51arats
