This unusual material has little Turritella-like fossils in it; even though it's lighter in color than most of the Turritella I've seen, that's my guess at ID. It's very stable material; there is a small chip on the back edge which I have filled with epoxy (cannot be seen from the front). This cab has a killer shine. What a beauty!

40mm x 30mm x 5.5mm.   Weight: 51.85 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.
