Marra Mamba tigereye cab ~
Offered here is a sweet cabochon of genuine Marra Mamba tigereye, a rarity from Australia. This startling old stock material is, in my opinion, the most awesome tigereye in the world, and this gem's a great example. It features flashy blue and yellow chatoyance, which rolls and gleams from the cab. The two hues touching gives the illusion of green, and it stands out wonderfully in a background of very colorful jasper. There's also quite a bit of shiny silvery metallics (hematite) in this one, in the form of ribbons down one side, as well as scattered flecks. No doubt you will treasure this stone! The cab has a well rounded dome of 5.5mm, a smooth designer 'pillow' shape, and a great glassy polish both front and back.
Size: 44x21mm
Weight: approximately 56 carats
