Description
~ Dinosaur Bone cab ~

Offered here is a cabochon of fossilized dinosaur bone, from Utah. This highly silicated material is many millions of years old, a marvelous example of the natural preservation of our earth's ancient, extinct 'thunder lizards'. The cells in this fossil bone have been completely replaced with translucent and burnt reddish-orange agate, some of which has neat fortifications, like tiny thundereggs. There's a sponge-like network of webbing toward the large end, which would be much more translucent if this stone were not so thick and substantial. Please click the photos up to full size for a better view. No doubt this gemmy beauty will create a fabulous item jewelry that is literally a piece of the past! The cab has a high rounded dome, a strong designer 'shield' shape, and an excellent glassy polish both front and back.

Size: 45x23mm
