Wave Hill agate cab ~
Offered here is a cab of Wave Hill agate, from Australia's Northern Territory. It's not
often that a 'new' material becomes an instant favorite of mine, but this exceptional agate won my
heart straight away. Everyone who sees it is impressed! When Terry Maple spied these agates at this
year's Tucson show, he bought the entire lot! Bless his heart for sending some fine little nodules
home for me to enjoy! Please take a good look at the details in this stone and you'll see why I'm so
excited about this world class agate. This one has a neat display of eyes and orbs, along with a full pattern soft raspberry red
fortification bands. The bands in the pink areas are incredibly fine and intricate, like a moire pattern,
so only the larger images will reveal what your eye sees in person; please be sure to enlarge the
photos. The uniqueness of each Wave Hill agate makes
it a lapidary's fantasy, a collector's MUST HAVE, and I have no doubt it'll be a jewelry designer's best
friend. It has a nicely rounded dome of 6mm, a stylized 'heart' shape, and a sweet glassy polish
both front and back.
Size: 30x28 mm
Weight: approximately 31 carats
Price: Sold Current gemstone offerings $36.00
