I have been looking for this cab for about 4 years and I finally found it. It took retiring and moving all of my junk to find it. While I was unpacking and storing my stuff in the new shop I found it where I suspected it should be but couldn't find it before. Is that an indication that I have too much junk and rocks? ? I'm not sure what the particular Agate is. When I cut and polished it I had this side as the front. This is the back. I see a Native Indian dancing with a costume that has long white feathers dangling from it. Am I crazy or does anyone else see what I do? Bob

Cool lookin' cab, Bob.
The back also vaguely resembles a map of Scotland.

Man that is beautiful and very unusual. Could be Marfa Plume or Night and Day plume out of Mexico. Gotta give props for the choice of pattern. Mother Nature laid out the basic structure but man you did a fine job of identifying it and framing and polishing for maximum effect. That's sure what great cabbing is all about.....Mel

WOW! I can almost hear the sound of that pow-wow song and feel the smell of the smoke that surrounds him.

Mel, Thank you for the reminder. It was sold to me as Night and Day Plume. Bob

You sure did a beautiful job refining what nature put in that stone. I also see the Native American dance. That is just awesome.

That's an awesome cab! I like both sides, especially the dancing native American. I will have my eye out for some night and day plume.

OMG, that is probably one of the coolest cabs I have ever seen!!! Hmmm, on both sides I see a goose's neck arched over the plume and its head and beak hanging to one side. I swear, Im not drunk or high LOL. Please, someone tell me they see the dang goose too! Shannon

Awesome stone!! Definitely a collection centerpiece.. I really like how the white plumes are framed with black, it really creates a great contrast in the stone.

That's a beautiful cab Bob! You brought out the very best in it with the Native Indian in it Shannon, that's not a goose, lets call it a swan with a graceful neck arching over. Or, if it is a goose, maybe he is dancing for the gods to bring good hunting to him. Fran
