This is a cab of Montana Agate that I finished today. It is 2" in diameter. This view is looking at the pattern through the cab. I consider this to be the back. This view is what I would consider the front. I agonized about posting this one because I didn't want to offend anyone.............. I showed it to my wife and she said it looked really neat. As she rotated it (front view) 90 degrees clockwise she said "Ohmygosh! It looks like a p***s". If you don't want to be offended, please don't tilt your head to the left to view this. Bob

Fine looking Montana P-P you have there Bob ;D! I was focusing on the darker parts and didn't even notice that until you said it. Tell your wife...'Good-Eye!' Steve

Bob: So you guys are a little pervy too? It is funny I am usually all over a good nasty photo, but all I can see is the phantom of the opera mask? What a piece though, it is beautiful you always do such nice work. We gotta get Tony up and running with the CO!! Amber

Wow, that' cool, and she's right. Do you or your wife know any women who are in love with a guy named Dick? It'd make a great pendant for her.

Great montana but I would never have seen the member in the cab without you pointing it out. Definitely more visible on the front view.

To bad that is not opal. Then you could say it came from Wangdoodle. That is an opal collecting site in the Owyhee mountains of Idaho.

Yup, post it. I'm pretty sure we're all adults here ...kinda. Amber, I think appropriate paistes for you would be stalagmite/stalagtite slices of Rhodochrosite.

Oh my gosh, it took me a while but I just saw it in the first pics! LOL. I must be tired! But the Rhodo absolutely screams pasties. Maybe these should have their own section: "X-rated Rock Pics". LOL

Ah hmm, well, it is a great cab! Very well detailed. I like this Rhodocrosite too Michaeljohn. Um, beautiful spirals there but the 3 are a little excessive. Stardiamond...Wow! Fran

If those things were a bit prouder you could gets lots of money in parts of the world where phallics in natural material are much sought after. If you could find a gensing root that looked like that you could name your price. T

The pattern from the inner one goes through to the other side, is larger, but distorted. I've had this slab for a long time and it wouldn't be good for a regular cab, maybe a belt buck. If I ever get involved selling on ebay, I'll probably sell it as a slab. Speaking of rhodochrosite, I've posted this cab before,but not in this context:
