astrophyllite cabochon gemstones

Type: Astrophyllite

Enhancement: None - 100% natural

Origin: Russia

Price: $15-$150 per stone

Astrophyllite's unique appearance is due the complicated chemical composition with a makeup of potassium, sodium titanium, iron and manganese. Translated from the original Greek words astron for "star" and phyllon meaning "leaf", Astrophyllite displays a subtle enticing golden yellow to brown metal sheen from different angles. This is a wonderful cabochon for someone looking for something different. Matched pairs and suites available. (Return to Top)

 

 

Native Silver in Cobaltite is an extremely rare material from Canada and the cabs are absolutely stunning. In bright lighting, they just pop. A bright mirror chrome finish is highlighted against a sugary snow white background. Matched pairs, suites and fancy shapes available. (Return to Top)

pyrite druzy cabochon gemstones

Type: Pyrite Druzy

Enhancement: Stabilized

Origin: Russia

Price: $10-$20 per stone

The color on these Pyrite Druzy cabs is 100% natural. Most of the spectacularly bright colors you see on gemstones are the result of a very thin layer or coating of titanium. These cabs were hand picked for the bright gold in the pyrite and the almost iridescent rainbow colors. (Return to Top)
