I bought a bunch of slabs from Mary Ann day before yesterday so I was busy in the shop today.
I must tell you that I bought 4 very large slabs of the Ocean Stone. I was completely shocked at how the cab turned out. It is the most beautiful stuff I have come across in a very long time! It seems to be VERY close to Larimar. If she has any left......I would buy it now if I were you! There is no more left, you can only get it in old collections. It comes from British Columbia, Canada.
And now for the cabs.........

Ocean Stone (the pic does NOT due this cab justice!)

Here is another shot of the Ocean Stone, this one shows more detail....the one above shows more of the true color!

Stone Canyon (not from Mary Ann)

Lazulite?

Chrysocolla

Moss Agate (also not from Mary Ann)

Enjoy

I ordered a slab of that stuff, thanks to Ina who spotted it and enjoyed it. Adrian

those cabs look so much better in person. the Lazulite i got from ken on evolution in stone site. the ocean stone, i only have maybe 4 good size slabs left and then it will be gone. It comes from very old collection. Adian, i'm glad you wife spotted it, she will love it.
