Apache jasper cab ~
Here is a designer cabochon of Apache jasper, actually a rhyolite, also known as Mimbres Valley
jasper, after the location where it's found in New Mexico. This fabulous material just smacks of
southwest flavor, with its strong resemblance to the old west's sagebrush dotted desertscapes. This
particular example features some of that plumy sagebrush, in shades of deep maroon and dusty
rose pink. The stone has a high rounded dome of 6mm, a fun designer shape, and a great
glossy polish both front and back.
Size: 36x19mm
Weight: approximately 28 carats
Price: Sold Current gemstone offerings $32.00
