Description
~ Horn Coral cab ~

Offered here is a magnificent cabochon of fossilized horn coral, from Utah. Horn corals are actually ancient sea life, and you can clearly see the organic nature of this once-living coral in the highly translucent agate. This extra large example has the classic 'radiating spoke' figure, in deep crimson and coral red. A very close look reveals that it also contains some neat bullseye patterns, as well as swirling veils of agate in the clear areas. The beauty here is obvious, shown off in a shape that's certainly more fun than the boring rounds and ovals more often cut. Front and center for this one! The stone has a nicely rounded dome of nearly 6mm, and a fine glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 35x31mm
Weight: approximately 55 carats
