That Variscite steals the show for me. Chuck I like how easy it is to work with... I didn't think it would take as high of a polish as it did being soft. its colors look better in person though.

good stuff. gotta get me some of that variscite. I was talking with a miner about it and he said that they don't have any of the same grade in stock, but if they did it would be $40/lb. Heres a link to their place www.ltagallery.com/index.html... they may have the high grade in now as its been a few months since I spoke to them.... Unless you were wanting mine.. but thats my only piece I own now.

Yup, variscite. It's one of my favorite stones. You did a real fine job with that one.

I really like the free-form shape of your variscite. It deserves a "WOWWWZERS".
