I love it when they have metallic like fire like this one has. I cut this out of a piece of rough that came out of the Cerrito mine in Chispaso, Aguascalientes, Mexico

Another show stopper! Love the metallics, too.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

The top is botryoidal. I did use Nova points to finish this one. This fire layer was really thin and I did not want to risk putting it on the wheels
