Mixed Cabochons for jewellery making
Perhaps an odd offering - these are packets of mixed cabochons for jewellery makers to practice stone setting.
Currently our stock includes the following mixes:
Synthetic and natural mix
A good mix of largely semi precious stones with a few pieces of glass and a few synthetic stones. A quick look through and I've seen some Tigers Eye, blue Goldstone glass, Moonstone, Agate, Jaspers etc. I try to keep the ratio of the mix at 50/50 or above.
- 4-12MM sizes - ten grams - random pick was 20-25 cabs.
- 12-25MM sizes - ten grams - random pick was 5-8 cabs.
- 25-40MM sizes - ten grams - random pick was 1-3 cabs.
Please bear in mind different stones have different weights; and the cuts are almost always different too, so it is really difficult to provide a closer estimate. Even within the same stone (Quartz) I measured a difference of a gram between two 18x13MM stones.
Synthetic mix
Purely synthetic stones, unless I dropped one in the wrong bag. These are primarily glass, often the 'cats eye' kind of fibre optic glass. Mostly oval, round, and square.
The pictures you see here are representative of the products and are usually not the exact item you will receive. Where various grades are available we do try to photograph each grade - but some photographs are still on their way!
Frequently asked questions and delivery information
How do we grade stones?
There is no overall universal grading system for the majority of our products. As such, the grades we use are internal only. They simply refer to higher and lower qualities, but they may be entirely different grades to other websites. C grade pieces are of lower quality than B grade, which is lower than A grade.
How does our ordering and delivery process work?
You place an order via the website. When it’s been picked and packed, your order will be marked as completed and dropped off at our local post office. We have an account with the post office called a “Drop and Go” account, which allows the post office staff to process our parcels when they have free time, rather than me queuing up and delaying everyone else.
I get tracking information etc online when this has been completed. I typically do not send tracking information to customers unless they request it – but if you’ve requested tracked postage, it has been sent tracked! If you have any worries or concerns about your parcel being delayed please feel free to get in touch and I’ll send the tracking info over! We also get delivery confirmations for parcels over 25MM thick by default.
How do international orders work?
After Brexit, with the UK leaving the European Union, certain things have changed with regards to international orders. European Union customers will now likely be liable to pay the same amount of import VAT as any other international customers. You will be responsible for any customs and import fees.
I’d like to return my order for a refund.
No problem at all – just get in touch and we’ll arrange it. You can read our full returns policy here.
What payment methods do you accept?
I can accept Paypal, Stripe, cheque, and direct bank transfers. Paypal and Stripe will both allow you to pay with credit and debit cards.

A lovely mix of different shapes and colours for a great price! I liked the fact that there were several paired stones making them ideal for earrings.
