Agate and Jasper Cabochons

This section includes cabs made of agate, jasper, chert, rhyolite, and their varieties ("picture jasper", "wonderstone", "hickoryite", "mozarkite", etc). Some pieces are free-form and suitable for wire-wrap jewelry or simply for collecting;  others (where indicated) are standard sizes for mounting in various jewelry findings.

What you see is what you get.  Item in picture is same one that's for sale.
Each cabochon or piece of jewelry is a unique item. 
The material is 100% natural and does not contain any added colors or stabilizers, unless specifically noted.  Normally, agate doesn't need any kind of treatments or resins.  It is a very hard, siliceous stone that takes a nice polish.
