Blue Forest petrified wood cab ~
Offered here is a cabochon of gorgeous Blue Forest petrified wood, which might more accurately be called a wood replacement. This totally agatized (and rare) material is a genuine treat to work with, and mighty tough to pry from the hands of collectors. -smile- In fact, I don't recall ever seeing a cab of this material. This splendid gemmy example has patches of black, brown and tan suspended in a bluish agate, with several sparkling crystalline areas glittering beneath the surface. Nice fortification banding around the crystal cores too. The backlit photo reveals that the dark brown areas are surprisingly translucent agate, in warm carmel shades. This stone will draw admiring comments in even the simplest of settings, or in any collection. The cab has a nicely rounded dome of 4.5mm, and a fine glassy polish both front and back.
Sizes: 56x24
Weight: approximately 37 carats total
