Fossil coral cab ~
Offered here is a cabochon of colorful fossilized coral, from Indonesia. This fascinating material is something you don't see too often, particularly in these colors, and I must say I like it alot. Even without enlarging the pics, one can clearly see the stone's unmistakeable one-of-a-kind pattern of flower-like starbursts, hence the name 'flowers of the sea', as it is sometimes known. But please do enlarge the pics to see the intricate details within. It's composed of the highly silicated fossil remains of colonial sea coral, many millions of years old! This cab has a high rounded dome of 6+mm, a crisp designer shape, and a slick glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 50x22mm
Weight: approximately 48 carats
