Aballon Shell Doublet 5.70 CT
An abalone shell doublet is a composite gemstone made by cementing a thin slice of iridescent, natural abalone shell to a dark, sturdy backing (like mother-of-pearl or obsidian). A transparent dome of quartz or glass is often placed on top to magnify the shell's vibrant colors and protect it from scratches.
Popular variations and ways you can explore or purchase them include:
- Faceted Quartz Doublets: Natural abalone shimmer beneath a polished quartz cap, creating a 3D effect.
- Precious Metal Settings: Frequently set in rhodium-plated sterling silver or 18K gold-plated pieces.
- Loose Cabochons: Sold as raw materials for jewelry makers, wire-wrappers, and custom crafting.
