[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 417104, member: 2976"] Here's a cabochon cut from a very similar material to yours that I set in a pre-made 925 sterling silver pendant. If your piece is coloured right the way through, you could expect it to look something like this (can't post the photo here so here's a link to it instead) [url]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=9437[/url] This one is only small, it was only the tip of a much larger piece that was coloured right through, the rest of the piece was as usual - coloured on the outside and colourless inside :( The material you have there is quite hard and tough and takes on a high polish - perfect for cabbing.
