Gem silica chrysocolla cab ~
Offered here is a vivid cabochon of 100% natural gem silica chrysocolla, from Arizona. This stone features wonderfully intense blues and greens, bright and electric, with scattered confetti and a velvety patch of mossy green malachite for added appeal. There's an interesting fleck of reddish cuprite too. The stone has a surprising degree of translucence, in a broadly striped pattern, as shown by the backlit photo. This highly silicated material is quite durable, and will easily last long enough to become a future heirloom. The stone has a well rounded dome, and a versatile designer shape. The polish is as good as one can hope on silica and malachite in proximity, and it's decently smooth both front and back.
