Hello again Not sure what type of material this is. Something like Willow Creek or least from that general area. The two horizontal lines were aligned when I put the heart together But the bottom line (left side) moved in the grind If that makes any sense Plus this Thanks for looking again hope you all don’t get tired of hearts because the season just starting ha ha

Thanks Tela its pretty nice with that lavenderish coloring unfortunately as remarked early the alignment of the veining moved in the grind process. Its what I consider the front of the heart that’s a risk when aligning up 2 parts of a heart the alignment may not survive the grind. It becomes even more riskier when the slab is thicker that ¼” Which was the case with this heart. It was pretty slick uneven slab I hacked off / Ha Ha So I had to grind it much more to get the double dome to equalize That pushes the surface down and the veining shifts. anyway heres’ the other side
