Description
~ Fossil coral cab ~

Offered here is a large, deluxe cabochon of fossilized coral, from Indonesia. This fascinating material is something they're just not finding anymore, which is too bad because I like it alot. Without enlarging the pics, one can clearly see the stone's unmistakeable one-of-a-kind pattern of flower-like starbursts, hence the name 'flowers of the sea', as it is sometimes known. It is composed of the highly silicated fossil remains of colonial sea coral, many millions of years old! This cab has a well rounded dome of 6.5mm, a crisp designer 'spear' shape, and a slick glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 59x22mm
Weight: approximately 56 carats
