Apache gold cab ~
Here is a designer cabochon of 'Apache Gold', from Arizona. I'm told this old timey material is actually black serpentine with inclusions of golden pyrite, and I sure like it a lot! As you can see, the shiny gold stands out in super contrast against the jet black, for a rich look like no other. This is one of those tough to photograph materials, because it's next to impossible to get all the golden areas to reflect at once; in reality, that's just what they do. It ought to make some classically elegant item of jewelry, don't you think? The cab has a very high rounded dome, and despite a seemingly bumpy surface, it has a super glossy polish both front and back.
Size:44x13mm
Weight: approximately 34 carats
Price: $39.00
