I was surprised how many singled out this slab in the OJ and Brazilian post. So here's some more catnip for rockhounds. The other side, backlit: Hope ya like 'em, Rich

Incredible slab! And the way that the main pattern repeats at a smaller scale in pic 5 is also very interesting. I wander how did feel the person who cut it and admired it for the first time.

Mike - 9" x 8" x 1/4"
The cool part is how the eyes morph from one side to the other in just a quarter inch.
