Description: This Tiger's Eye cabochon was cut by my father several many years ago. The parallelogram shaped stone is highly polished and allows the chatoyance to shine forth. The stone is 40 mm by 20 mm by 3 mm and it weighs about 4.461 grams or 22.31 carats. I don't know the location of where this stone was mined or any other information on it. My dad's tags on all of his cabochons were very minimal. With his PhD in Mineralogy, my dad collected many hundreds of rocks and minerals. He often cut and/or faceted some of the gemstones he collected and then made them into simple jewelry, or sold them to jewelers. He told me that he "lets the stone dictate the shape" so that his cabochons truly emphasize the best the stone has to offer. Creating such unique shapes puts his work into a different category from the mass cut stones that come from Asia or India. I'll be posting more of my father's rock collections (rough material, cut stones, pendants, mineral specimens, and other rock related items) off and on for months so do make my store one of your favorites and check in often to see what new items are listed. I'll gladly combine shipping for purchases made on the same day. If you win more then one auction please request an invoice so I can adjust the shipping costs before you pay. Thanks!
