Howdy folks,
Was chipping a few of my big Rios that show no exterior pattern to see what's inside so I can make sure the stuff I sell for the kids is pretty agate. This one looked like this with no indication of what's inside at all.
Knocked off a chip and to my surprise, it's not even a Rio. Look real close and you can see the tubules of very translucent red and white palm fiber. Cool beans huh. My hammer made a little fracture but the rest is clean so I'll take me a few slabs off to other end of this one....Mel
