Hi all, Here is a groove wrapped dyed agate. This is big over 2 inches long with the coolest druzy. The way was slabbed was blind luck as it left a clear window of agate over the druzy. Its double sided the other side showing a druze pocket. Of course I did not photo that, yep dumb A**

A lot of people don't like dyed agates and I am one of them but, this piece is very nice. It has a softness to it and is an attractive piece of jewelry! Well done!

very pretty! I can see right where the druzy will be on the other side.

Thanks everyone, I don't much care for the dyed material either. I bought this at the Natural History Museum in NYC. You can never bring enough rock home to Canada on the airplane:) I really like the druze in this one.
