I do not cut many cabs but help my wife with a few, this little cab is imperial rhodonite from our region in Australia, a very special piece, very fine grain and polished awesome, from a deposit that is now mined out. Attachments:

Thanks Pat, joy to work a gem that pops when polished, working a gem from my region makes it all the more special.

Exquisite color MickMarg! Too bad the mine is worked out. I would love to work some... Very beautiful stone.
Thank you for sharing this with us.
