Nice! Hard to tell if it is a rock or a photo! Would make a great focal piece for a composite cab.

From Indonesia. Saw this stuff for the first time a few weeks ago at a local show. The dealer had two distinct varieties – one was mostly blue/gray w/yellow and the other, you’d swear was Stone Canyon jasper. Same orangey breccia filled w/what looks like white agate and some darker, almost green material.
There’s a 5” x 5” slab of the orange one parked right here on the desk for now. I see a few nice cabs in it.

Very nice. The transition from monochrome to color is interesting

Outstanding scene in that. Looks like it will make some beautiful picture stones.

That's a really interesting stone. Love to see the cabs that come out of it.

</div>Magnificent composition, congratulations. Put that in a 18K gold frame and you can sell it for a small fortune. How big is it? Will you be taking orders? Cheers, johnw

Maligano gets a page in next month’s Rock & Gem (January, 2019), featuring four heart-shaped cabs of the mostly blue/gray variety.
Sixty-six, if you gotta know. : )

I was thinking "That's a pretty mediocre Christmas Card, but WAIT ... (really did have to wait as the cogs turned only slowly) ... that's a ROCK?!?!!?" (blush2) Amazing
