cab0024 Cab 0024 Blue Chalcedony Oval
w/amber & feather Blue agate

Namibia Probably 40 $3 41 x 23 x 5
$120
cab0025 Cab 0025 Blue Chalcedony High Dome w/dot Cab This high domed cab of Blue Chalcedony is some of the more saturated color from this chunk of rock. (see rough on my page) In person the yellow dot so obvious in the photo is fainter. Great ring stone. Namibia probably 10.8 $6 13 x 11
x 9 high

cab0027 Cab 0027 Blue Chalcedony/ Multicolored Blue Agate scene cab I bought this lovely blue seam agate, blue chalcedony, several years ago and it sat in my studio. I finally slabbed some and don't know what the wait was about. Not only does it show the colors and picture quality, but with the light behind it there is a negative image that's quite startling. Haven't been able to find anything else like this anywhere. Fortunately I got a pretty good size piece. (see slabs on my rough page) Namibia probably 17.4 grams NA 38 x 36 x 5
$140
cab0028 Cab 0028 Chrysoprase Drop, the best quality Cab The color, the glow, the flawlessness--this as good as it gets in chrysoprase.

(see my rough page for similar material) Queensland Australia 9.1 $15 15 x 11 x 6

$60

$45
cab0033 Cab 0033 Crazy Lace Agate/ Red Cab This stone has a crack about 1/3 through on the left. I very rarely sell cracked stones, but the beauty of this compelled me to offer it for sale.

reduced $55
cab0034 Cab 0034 Paiute Agate/ Picture with a Tree Cab This Paiute Agate cab shows a skyline at dusk, a slope with a line of distant trees. It is a small delicate piece with browns, beiges, blue, and the faint red of a sinking sun. (see slabs on my rough page) Oregon 2.8 grams NA 20 x 18 x 3
$40
cab0035 Cab 0035 Dendritic Agate/ Fireworks Cab,carved The dark material seeped between the thin layers of agate as it formed and then was frozen in time until I found the best layer and scooped away the rest to leave this pocket of plants carved out. Photo is backlit. Madagascar 16 c $6 22 x 20 x 5
$96
cab0036 Cab 0036 Dendritic Agate, Dendrite Bush Cab Wow. This Dendritic agate has about everything. It's an arboretum of plants with a perfectly clear agate background, though as you can see with natural or artificial light on the surface it shows quite blue. Alas, the red is from a stand I used to photo on. Unk. I wish I knew 24.5 c $6 30 x 20 x 3.5

$102
cab0038 Cab 0038 Dendritic Agate - Five sided Triangle Cab How these plants seeped between the thin layers of agate I can't say. But the shape just begged to stay like this. It's a triangle with two extra sides. Thinner on the right than the left. Photo is backlit. Madagascar 22 c $3 36 x 28 x 3
$66
cab0039 Cab 0039 Dendritic Agate/Ferns & Webs Cab, carved A very special stone. The creamy white backgound shows the webs and ferns spreading out from centers in this quite large cab. Lots of design possibilities, but the surface is wavy to follow the layers of dendrites in the thin onion layered agate. Highly polished but a few minor pits at the centers. Madagascar 62 c $4.5 46 x 26 x 6
$280

cab0042 Cab 0042 Green Turquoise, natural untreated/ Oval Green Cab This creamy green Turquoise has one very small crecent of white matrix but is otherwise perfectly clean and very beautiful. For the green turquoise lover, this is about as good as it gets. It will darken with wear because it's untreated. NOTE: Untreated turqoise like this is becoming quite scarce. United States 13.1 c $12 21 x 11 x 4
$156
cab0043 Cab 0043 Turquoise, Untreated, Long Tall Truqui Cab This bubbly turquoise has taken an excellent polish even in the small areas of white matrix that show.

$156
cab0044 Cab 0044 Turquoise, Pastel green Cab I got this, clean of matrix, pretty, green turquoise out of an old collection of assorted pieces, none were identified. But it's such a lovely color that I had to cut it and offer it to you.
