6 Rare Genuine Ellensburg Blue Agate Cabochon Free Forms

[maxsafflelax]

I found a large Ellensburg Blue Agate about 5 miles from the Green River Notch in Ellensburg, WA this summer. After months of deciding we chose to cut the stone and the results are beautiful. The man who cut the stones works out of a shop called Gem State Crystals in Moscow, ID and graded three of the stones at A grade, one at A/B, and the two largest ones at a B. There is 66.5 Carats in all and I wanted to share/ask anyone if they had a possible appraisal for these stones. I have heard anywhere from 10-250 dollars a Carat depending on the quality and size of the stone. I'm curious so feel free to comment what you think or if you have any other additional info go ahead and share. I have posted all the pictures from hard stone until the final cut cabochons. Enjoy!

Beautiful stones ! That blue agate may be more commonly known as Chalcedony . I can't speak to the value of your stones ,
but as a jeweler myself , when I would try to buy nice cabs for rings everything that I wanted for ring stones was $25-$70.
which I struggled to come up with . These blue Chalcedony pieces look great set in 22K gold bezels !
