This stuff is just amazing. The color and pattern variations are endless. I got about 200 pounds of this stuff thanks to my father in law. Here is a batch of cabs. Tan Kona Mahogany Kona Creme Kona Pink couldnt put a name on this color. The whole group. Thanks for looking

Great variety of colors and shapes, I like the most the third one in the first row - very nice shape. Being able to make such sharp points also means it's a solid and reliable material, is it?

It's all good! Love your shapes and all the patterns are nice, especially the "can't name the color" ones. Tony

Wow! Such variety from a single material! I also really like your shapes. Great post! I love seeing this sort of display so I can get an idea of all forms and patterns shown by single types of stone.....Mel

Very nice cabs, the hardness is 4 1/2 to 5, I would guess as you can scratch it with a knife. It is only found in Michigan UP. I have alot of this material and the variety is endless. Thanks for posting. Daniel
