Description
~ Montana agate cab ~

Offered here is a large, deluxe cabochon of Montana agate, cut from Yellowstone River agate found long ago. This particular piece was selected from an old stash of 5 gallon buckets full I lucked into a few summers back. The agate is quite clear, and contains several ribbon-like fortification bands of carnelian orange, brown, and inky black. I think it's a nice example of banded Montana agate, and it does show some turtleback effect when held to the light, though I neglected to take a backlit photo. It has a rounded dome of 5mm, a designer 'flame' shape, and a brilliantly glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 56x23mm
Weight: approximately 50 carats
