Horse Canyon agate~
Offered here is a large cabochon of gorgeous Horse Canyon plume agate, from California. This most famous type of agate is arguably some of the prettiest and most sought after there is. Sadly, the area where it once came from is all private and closed, so there's been no collecting for quite some years now. This unique cab features a very rare and unusual showing of green mossy plumes afloat in a highly translucent agate base that includes areas of milky white, smoky and hint of yellow. Character to spare! The pleasantly intricate patterns remind me of a leaves in a garden, before the blooms, and fit the stone's shape wonderfully; please be sure to click the pics up to full size to best enjoy the details of its artful natural beauty. The cab has a high rounded dome of 6.5mm, a sweet designer 'paisley' shape, and a brilliant polish both front and back.
Size: 52x25mm
Weight: approximately 59 carats
