I have been having problems taking a good picture of this. I think it might be petrified wood, but not sure. Can it be tumbled? Can it be cut? I would love to make it into a necklace but as is it is very bulky. imgur.com/a/cwbVM

Is there anything I should look for to tell if it is an agate.

yes, I would guess agate with dendrites. Good chance it will fluoresce under ultraviolet light.
Google "agate" and you will find some good descriptions.
