Here's what I've been up to lately. Turitilla Agate. Copco Agate (from N. Calif/S. Oregon border). Carey Plume Brazilian Agate Finally my usual...Montana Agate (small). Poor picture because it is out of focus. On some cabs my camera can't decide what part of the cab to focus on especially if there are images below the surface. Thanks for looking. Bob

I can barely type, my keyboard is so slippery with drool! Love them all, but the carey plume is a real eye-catcher!

I love the placement on that turitella - terrific shape, pattern, and shine!
And I love every Montana I've seen of yours. Wonderful as always!

You got the shell in the turitella perfect! I really think that I like the last one best

I like that Carey and Brazilian best too. What is the Copco Agate like?? I wouldn't mind a close-up of that one. I almost bid on some Copco rough, but not quite sure what the material is exactly like. Steve

The Turitella and the last two ones are my favorites (the framing of the Turritella is awesome), but they are all so beautiful, deserving photos a bit larger in my opinion. Although, at the seccond thought, these pics show the actual size of the cabs and give a very good image of how they look in real.

Steve, Here are some pictures of some tumbled rough. You can see the variation in size of the pieces. If you see any available nowdays it is usually on the smaller size. It has fantastic contrasting patterns. Bob

Another awesome batch, Bobby! I especially love the Turitella and Carey, and, of course, that Montana.

Loved the way you framed the shell in the turitilla. I have some copco agate but its red not black. Makes me wonder if mine really is copco. The others are excellent too.
