Description
~ Horse Canyon agate~

Here is a fascinating cabochon of rare Horse Canyon agate, from California. This highly sought after moss agate is one of my long time favorites, becoming tougher to get by the day. The area where it hails from is now private and closed, so it can no longer be collected. This particular stone is of the dark variety, seldom seen these days; when I reach the end of what few nodules I have left, it may prove impossible to replenish. This stone has a mysterious feel to it, featuring a background agate the color of dark smoky root beer, and within that are very ornate moss-like stringers and veils of deep olive greens and tans. There are some neat 'water level' patches of white too. Please click to enlarge the pics to enjoy the delightful details! The stone has a low rounded dome of about 5mm, a sleek designer 'talon' shape, and a fine glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 60x19mm
Weight: approximately 36 carats
