This rock was gathered just a few miles from home. It's known locally, along with other river rock, as "Brookwood Stone." In our area, this rock's composition is 90% quartz and 10% chert. This cabochon is cut in a thumbnail shape and has a real gemmy look. The diagonal line you see at mid-left is a stable fracture.

24mm x 23mm x 7mm.   Weight: 35.00 carats.

Every one of my cabochons is custom cut to take the best advantage of the particular slab from which it is fashioned. Colors may vary somewhat from what is pictured due to differences in computer monitors.
