Crinoid marble cab ~
Offered here is an intriguing cabochon of crinoid marble, ancient material from China. This one is a
colorfully crazy patchwork of figures in wine-red, pink, cream, gray and black. The truly unique
pattern is made up of the stems of fossilized plants called crinoids, which collected on the sea floor
and were compressed into solid marble over millenia. Amazing stuff! No marble or fossil collection is
complete without some crinoid marble, and this cab would be a fascinating centerpiece in any type
of jewelry creation you can imagine. It has a high rounded dome of 7.5mm, a bold designer shape, and a fine glossy polish
both front and back.
Size: 41x17mm
Weight: approximately 33 carats
