I love the high dome.
Color is not to shabby either!
Where from?
Thanks meely!
I love the color, but do wish it were a bit more translucent. I’d say color is closest to photo 3, but transparency is closest to the first photo. For the price, though, I can’t complain.
That is an increadibly beautiful gem silica. Truly.Funny, that was my first reaction when I got mine (having never seen one IRL and comparing it to others I saw here at PS). I kept it because the price was right and finally set it after seeing others at a local gem & mineral show. (I probably should put it in a nicer setting but it kept getting put on the back burner and so just went for a stock setting for now)
I LOVE LOVE the high dome on yours.
Haha I thought the same thing actually. Especially in the first pic, the color is the same as a paraiba! If I ever get tempted to buy a paraiba cabochon, I can remind myself to get gem silica instead.Wow! It is gorgeous. Copper colored and with Mohs of 7, don't you think it is a good alternative to Paraibas?
Inspiration Mine Arizona?
In pic 2 some tiny green dots typical for this location ( is is malachite ).
Very fine item...
I agree! Really loved seeing those examples! Thankyou.Omg @mochiko42, your advice about looking up "bacan" on insta was perfect. Soooo much amazing eye candy! For anyone who wants to see or buy what look like incredible stones, do the insta search and enjoy it! Plus there are vendors who sell via insta as well.
Oh god, this is too much...that second one is a heart breaker.
