Afghanistan has a centuries-old tradition of stone cutting and carving and is renowned for natural gemstones including lapis lazuli, turquoise, carnelian, agate, and onyx. Each cabochon is engraved with its own traditional-inspired scene; the examples shown feature stylized human figures, animals, and birds, including figures engaged in ceremonial or everyday activities and a striking bird motif. Simple decorative borders and geometric elements complete the designs, giving the pieces an appearance reminiscent of ancient carved seals and amulets. The natural variations, inclusions, and color patterns of the stone make every piece distinct. Measuring approximately 37-38 x 37-38mm, these hard-to-find cabochons are ideal as focal pieces for jewelry making, decorative objects, or other artistic endeavors. Each piece is unique—you will receive the exact cabochon pictured.","brand":"The Bead Chest","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49336098324635,"sku":"UNQ-STN-17312","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/8152\/files\/shopify_DSC_0339-1-1_3a06a588-dac8-4ea6-a055-82ee3f21ccbf.png?v=1787248817","url":"https:\/\/www.thebeadchest.com\/products\/premium-afghan-carved-stone-cabochons-set-of-3-17312","provider":"The Bead Chest","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
