Homedale Blue plume agate cab ~
Offered here is a splendid cabochon of the old time 'Homedale Blue' plume agate, from the reknown claim near Graveyard Point, Idaho. There are a number of wannabees out there that really aren't, but this stone is the real deal, cut from rough that came straight from the claim holder. It has an eye catching display of unique jet black dendrites, and golden straw-colored plumes, contrasting beautifully against a background of pale bluish agate. Reminds me of a Japanese watercolor! There's an attractive depth to this one, and it appears somewhat opalescent in certain lighting, with feathery 'snow storms' swirling within, along with some subtle banding. The cab has a nicely rounded dome of 5.5mm, a bold designer shape, and a glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 50x22mm
Weight: approximately 41 carats
