Here's a hodge-podge of material, but some cool looking stuff. Dendritic Opal Amythest sage Mookaite These next two are from one of the grab bags I picked up at the show. Some poppy jasper, the first three are from the material I picked up in Morgan Hill This one is Mariposa poppy jasper Cool piece of Graveyard Plume, not sure which direction I like best. And lastly, a really nice piece of tigereye. The only way I could capture the chatoyance of this stuff was to take a pic, then turn it a little bit and take another. Thanks for looking.

Of course they are all some sweet looking cabs...but I have to agree with Mel. That #5 just pops out as such a different looker! That Maripossa is really awesome too. Steve

I vote too for no 5 on the first place, closely followed by the dendritic opal. But all are great.

It's interesting how different stones appeal to different people. I agree that they are all great, but my #1 favorite is the Mariposa, I'd pick the dendritic opal as second-favorite, and the tiger eye as third. Nice job on all of them, Ed! -Don

Hmmm... I'll break the trend as well - my order goes Graveyard, Mariposa, #5, and then Dendritic.
But as always, they are all very nice.

they are ALL fabulous, as usual! but i guess i have a soft spot for tiger eye and you really shaped it well. i like the graveyard plume up. i was just thinnking today how there always seems to be an "up" to most cabs. i wonder what makes us decide?

Thanks everyone. I really like the green one myself, I just wish I knew what it is so I could get more. I've got more in the works and I'm starting some new ones too!
