Chrysocolla/Shattuckite in Quartz Designer Cut Cabochon

Robbin's Egg Blue to deep Azure Blue explode in this Large top cabochon of Chrysocolla and Shattuckite in a base of translucent quartz with green Malachite inclusions. I cut this cabochon from rough material coming out of Namibia, and I've given it a High dome, slightly angled girdle and flat polished back with slightly beveled edges. Note that there is one slight "nick" in the bottom of the girdle, but this will be covered completely by any bezel setting and could also be obscured if wrapping (this is also reflected in the price, so it's a good opportunity for a top quality stone at a discounted price). This cabochon has great character appeal and will definitely make an absolutely stunning one-of-a-kind piece of jewelry!

I cut this cab by hand and it's been highly polish both front and back with slightly beveled bottom edges for safe and easy setting.

Note that all my photos were taken using full spectrum lighting, which does fairly well in replicating natural sunlight. However, almost all cut stones will look best and brightest in direct sunlight.
