Two of these stones have been sitting on my bench already grooved for months. The other one was a tumbled stone I finished last week from Tommy's snowflake counting contest. Any I.D. information is welcomed. I'll start with the stone from Tommy. This was the tumbled rock I made the cab from The cab has some peach colored fortification bands in it. Lots going on in this one little cab. Not sure what the heck this is either but I wish I had a bunch This one is some sort of mossy agate with blood red veins Thanks for looking Chuck

Great cabs and wraps Chuvk! I miss seeing your purty shiny things!!! Thanks Bill. I am gaining some momentum to get started again. Huge 70 percent sales drop last year took the wind out of my sails. If I don't have some revenue coming in you guys will get bored seeing just pudding stone and petoskey stone stuff all the time. LOL Chuck

I do't know abt the first one or the second, but the last looks like some of Mel's Rio Grande agate. I LOVE the second one. Nice sagenite. They all look great, as usual.

Beautiful wraps! Love the first two. Gorgeous colors and that sagenite is awesome. I have some Mexican red moss that looks just like the third one.
Well done!

Good to see you getting back in the groove (pun intended). That first stone was sold to me as Turkish Seam agate. Turkish materials are so widely variable I don't have too much trouble accepting that it is from there and I went with it. I bought one small slab that yielded one of my typical (too) large cabs and the piece you have. Not sure why I tossed that piece in the tumbler bin haha. I made this cab from it:

Thanks for the I.D. Tommy. That would be my first Turkish cab then. Cool stuff. Chuck

Like them all. I’ve never seen Sagenite in anything other than a pretty stone. Thanks for the show.
