Looks like agate or even petrified wood. Yes, I'd tumble it!

One of my sons asked me what kind of tumbler I wanted and I told him the Lortone QT 66 I think the three of my boys are going to pitch in and get me one for Christmas I'm trying to not get my hopes up but I'm super-excited

If there are some small heavy presents are also under the tree, I hope they have grit and more stones to tumble. You cannot go wrong with the QT66. It will eat up your rocks and spit out some beauties. Merry Christmas.

I definitely need a bigger tumbler, my plan for now (until I can get a vibe) is to hopefully use the QT66 for the rough stage then finish them in my smaller tumbler. And Merry Christmas to you as well!
