Catmandewe here and Tony at FB Fullmoon had a piece of gem Owyhee on auction. The listing picture didn't show much but I'm always looking for gem Owyhee. This is the listing picture: It arrived today and this is a picture of the rough: There is only one orientation to cut so I took two slices from the middle to get the widest slabs. Picture is the two slabs and the two heels.

Nice colors in that one. Good job getting the best out of it. Should make beautiful cabs. TFS

Nice looking rough! I must stay under my rock too long, have never heard the term "gem" applied to picture jasper before!

I have heard it referred to as old stock, original and gem. The seller called it gem. I like the term gem because it is harder and cleaner than some Owyhee.
