Not sure where the rough is originally from or what it looks like. I think it was produced by The Gem Shop in WI, but someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

I understand this came from Brazil (I could be wrong though), and it is heat treated to increase the contrast of the bands. Bill

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
