Description
~ Red horn coral cab ~

Offered here is a magnificent cabochon of fossilized horn coral, from Utah. I've heard the old collecting site is closed, so that explains why the good stuff has become so hard to get. Horn corals are actually ancient sea life, and you can clearly see the organic nature of this once-living coral in the highly translucent agate. It has the classic 'radiating spoke' figure in reddish orange, with a light coral pink center that's loaded with teensy bullseye patterns. Front and center for this one! The stone has a nicely rounded dome of 6mm, and a slick glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 30x24mm
Weight: approximately 42 carats
