Personal Note From Natural Gems Belgium:
This oval shaped cabochon has poor polish grade due to the natural inclusions of moss it is extremely difficult to get equal structure in polish. Fair to good symmetry, and has a nice natural variation of centered deep dark brownish red and purplish grey displaying nice moss design. very good specific and moss inclusions make it a unique agate cabochon
