I love the name "storm" for this. Pure genius! Albino fire agate for sure..

Here are pictures of the second fireplace made from lots of that Travertine looking rock.

Several tons of California beach tumbled rock are sitting in my living room in Utah in the form of this fireplace.

Awesome rockwork but really, really like that cedar(juniper) mantle, The wood is finished perfectly.

Henry, The rock in the lower left of your photo is familiar to me. I faced 2 fireplaces in that stuff. It looks like Travertine marble.

As promised, here are photos of the best agates I've found at/near Pescadero.

Are you cabbing any of these exotics Lynn. You have such great stuff and lots of it.

I am now calling them storm cloud agates lol.

I love the storm clouds. I might have to start backlighting what I call gel quartz and see if it is stormy.
