Admire the artistry of this hand-carved circular stone cabochon from Afghanistan, individually crafted by an artisan from natural black onyx or warm orange-red carnelian. Afghanistan has a centuries-old tradition of stone cutting and carving and is renowned for its natural gemstones, including lapis lazuli, turquoise, carnelian, agate, onyx, and other decorative stones. Each cabochon is engraved with a distinctive traditional-inspired motif; the examples shown feature stylized winged animals, birds, and human figures, recalling imagery found in the historic decorative arts of Afghanistan. Natural variations, inclusions, and color patterns give every stone its own character. Measuring approximately 36-38 x 36-38mm, these hard-to-find cabochons make striking focal pieces for jewelry making, assemblage, decorative objects, or other artistic endeavors. Each piece is unique—you will receive the exact cabochon pictured.
