Marra Mamba tigereye cab ~
Here is a premium cabochon of genuine Marra Mamba tigereye, a rarity from Australia. This startling material is, in my opinion, the most awesome tigereye in the world, and this gem's a magnificent example of the highest calibre. It features dancing pearly chatoyance, predominately in salmon, red and blue with a bit of gold, all of which roll and flash through the stone. Where those colors touch is the illusion of green and even a hint of purple. THE MOST PRIZED colors of all, a near rainbow! There's a bit of jasper present at each end, alternating with ribbons of shiny metallic hematite. Believe me when I say you won't find better anywhere! The cab has a generously high rounded dome of about 7.5mm, a curvy designer 'leaf' or 'shell' shape, and a brilliantly glassy polish both front and back, as befits a cab of this stature.
