4.31 Ct. Cabochon Agate from Madagascar

This eye catching, translucent bi color agate from Madagascar presented by The Natural Gemstone Company weighs 4.31 carat, with an elegant oval shape and measured dimensions of 11.99 x 10.66 x 4.62 mm, cabochon cut, and an excellent polish. The piece displays intense color intensity, shifting from warm amber orange toward a soft rose red in certain lights, and has a clarity grade of eye clean evaluated at eye level. Enhancement is dyeing, which has been professionally applied to enhance the vivid bicolor appearance while preserving the stone surface. The cabochon dome highlights the smooth satiny luster and subtle depth of color, making this agate ideal for designs that benefit from a visually rich, luminous centerpiece.

For jewelry applications this translucent 4.31 carat oval is particularly suited to bezel settings, pendants, statement rings, and vintage inspired pieces where the polished dome can catch and reflect light. The warm color range pairs beautifully with warm metals, and the stone can be matched with gold for a classic look or with rose gold for a tonal ensemble that emphasizes the pinkish hues. Because the stone has been dyed, general care is important to maintain its appearance, avoid prolonged exposure to strong sunlight and extreme heat, and clean with a soft cloth and mild soapy water rather than harsh chemicals. Avoid ultrasonic and steam cleaning to protect the enhancement, and remove jewelry during heavy wear or when using strong cleaning agents. At The Natural Gemstone Company we disclose enhancements transparently and can advise on safe setting and cleaning practices to keep the gem looking its best for years to come, and we are happy to provide additional photographs or a custom mounting recommendation.
