Interesting effect, very nice. Just love the splat of red there, quite beautiful.

Thanks Don. The flaw is the attraction.

It really does look cool! Did you heat the entire stone or just the portion where the phantom is?

The whole stone Cathy. About 30 pounds of them. Tumbling chips from 7-8 chunks of fossilized coral all packed in sand together and cooked like a rock casserole. But only that clear material phantom ed? Got me.
They start out clear and change to a white cloud color. You would think the inside would be clear and the outside cloudy. It was found by accident but I recognize the raw material and can find it again
