Finished a couple more from the group of 100... Amethyst sage from Tony. The micro fractures in the purple are pretty common and not discernible to the eye, but jump out at the camera. Walker Ranch plume, collected last year with Teri... Walker Ranch flower garden, from last year. Colors are a little richer in the hand. This is a Mexican material that I believe they named Clementite. Obtained from my old high school chum Klaus Clement at last years Quartzsite Pow Wow. Golden moss with silvery black plumes. From last years Texas trip again....Marfa plume from the Singleton Ranch. The shape follows the shape of the little nodule. Just take off the bad stuff. Thanks for looking. I'll have more finished soon... Craig

Craig, socalagatehound you've really gotten into some truly beautiful material. Congrats to you. If you ever feel the need to bring along some dead weight, please let me know. Dave

Beautiful set! I'd like to see the Walker cab back lit. Really dig the Clementite, I believe it's the first time I've ever seen that material.

I was surprised how dense the inclusions were packed in there. I couldn't see a thing holding it up to the sun or a normal light. That's a 350 lumen LED flashlight behind it. Craig
