This gorgeous Turkish purple jade designer cabochon weighs a hefty 128 carats and has been cut into a design which is reminiscent of a boat anchor. It has very little mottling and displays a deep and rich, highly saturated, intense dark purple color- not unlike the skin of a ripe eggplant. Also known as “turkiyenite,” this mysterious material has been used as a gemstone since the 1980’s, when it was first exported to commercial markets, although there are rumors that it was used to adorn parts of the first Ottoman Empire palace.
Cut by Jake Jasper, this old-stock untreated purple jade is some of the highest quality Turkish purple jade on the market today. This variety of purple jade is only found in the Bursa region of western Turkey. Jake was able to acquire this rare material through his long-standing relationships with the miners of the area. Hard to locate- especially in the finest qualities- this remarkable designer cabochon would create an exquisite piece of custom jewelry and would appeal to anybody seeking something striking and different.
