Howdy folks, Just took another batch out of the burnish. It's a variety of stuff I've had building up in the bin, various Hornitos material and lots of other junk. Here are a few pictures. Thanks for looking....Mel The whole batch tinies and all:  Wish I had more of this stuff. This is Chinese Writing Lace Agate from Mexico:  Mixed Cosmos, Firefly and Breccia from Hornitos:  Just a couple of poppy pieces. The two at the top are form a site my buddy and I found right before I moved. White poppies with red and green. Wish I had more. I did save a couple of cabbing pieces somewhere.  |

The 2nd picture ... you have there that it is Chinese Writing Lace.
Looks a lot like Crazy Lace. Or are they the same thing?
As always

Yep, Chinese Writing Lace ( also called dying lace as it readily accepts color) is one of the several named varieties of Crazy Lace in Brad Cross' definitive book on the agates of northern Mexico.....Mel

Mel,
Nice stones! The more I look at the whole batch picture the more curious I get. Don't hesitate to post more closeups.

Hum, Mel, I think some of the lace I got at the auction from that old guy could be that writing lace, hun, I will have to dig it out and post a photo, for you to take a look at.
These are beauties for sure, nice and shiny!!!
