Description
~ Lazulite in quartzite cab ~

Offered here is a sweet designer cabochon cut from rare lazulite in quartzite, premium lapidary material from Georgia's Graves Mountain area. In this fascinating example, there are several deep blue lazulite crystals, the largest of which shows excellent dipyramidal form. The grayish quartzite base has a nice degree of translucence, and contains a multitude of silvery pyrite flecks that shimmer and sparkle like glitter, though only a hint of them is visible in the enlarged photos. Please be sure to click them up to full size. If you like featuring the truly unusual in your creations, you'll love this stone! The cab has a very high rounded dome, a gracefully sleek shape, and a slick glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 44x17mm
Weight: approximately 43 carats
