Biggs jasper cab ~
Offered here is a sweet cab of blue Biggs jasper, from Oregon. A long time favorite in the celebrated family of porcelain jaspers, this classic material has become quite collectibly rare and spendy these days. This fine example has a plenty going for it, with ribbons of rich browns and creamy tans, as well as a nice scattering of jet black dendrites that resemble tiny trees. There's even a generous dollop of the much sought after lavender tones. Viewed with a bit of imagination, the pattern is oddly scenic, in a way, like some exotic land from a fairy tale. It has a low well rounded dome of just under 5mm, which is a tad thinner than I prefer, but it works fine for the proportions of this stone. It has a slick glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 48x24mm
Weight: approximately 30 carats
