What is a Cabochon:
A Cabochon often referred to as a "cab" for short, is a certain cut of a stone that is very popular in jewellery designs, especially those that include gemstones. A cab can be made from almost any type of stone, wood, ceramic or porcelain the material does not matter. The defining elements of a cabochon have more to do with the shape of the component: it is flat on one side and domed or rounded on the other side. |
