Fire Agate Rough, Deer Creek (Arizona) FAR 979

Description

You are buying a piece of Deer Creek Fire Agate Rough. It measures 28.9 mm x 19.3 mm x 16.0 mm and weighs 5.6 grams. It was purchased from Bruce Alsup in 1978/1981. Bruce hand selected the rough he bought directly from the mine operator at the time. He used it to cut his finished Fire Agates Cabochons and make his Fire Agate Jewelry. Deer Creek Fire Agate Rough requires an experienced cutter or carver because the different color layers are formed in very thin curved bands. The photos were taken indoors with incandescent light and the rough was then sprayed with water to bring out the potential color bands at the edges of the piece.
