Description
~ Bohemite poppy jasper cab ~

Offered here is a cabochon of very unusual poppy jasper. The dealer who had the rough couldn't say for sure where it was found, and didn't know its name, but it was so amazing I eventually got all he had. Another fellow, who has similar Arizona material, claims its name is boehmite or bohemite, but since I can't be certain it is the same, I'll just continue offering it as a mystery poppy jasper. As you can see, it has a wildly exotic pattern, very upbeat and festive, to say the least, and certainly has some unusual colors too. There's burnt orange, creamy ivory, as well as a couple shades of oddly muted slate blues. The cab has a nicely rounded dome of 5.5mm, and a very slick glossy shine both front and back.

Size: 48x16mm
Weight: approximately 33 carats

Price: $40.00
