Turned out ok for my purposes - gonna line the bottom of a flower bowl with them. Thanks for looking! Tom

Looks like they shined well. We have never seen sodalite. Where is it found. Debby and Tom

I have a batch of those going myself, a bunch of off cuts from a couple spheres I made.

I know that some is found in parts of Canada, British Columbia, Maine, Arkansas, Brazil, Bolivia, Portugal, Romania, Burma and Russia. This info I got from Wikipedia. Tom

Ask the Rockshed. For a lot of their material, they say where it came from. I've been very satisfied with the material I've ordered from them.

Last I looked, Mama's M1nerals had sodalite on sale. Small pieces, but a very good price. I don't work there and haven't yet ordered from them either, so I'm not endorsing anything, just a tip.
