It's pretty pricey and under claim. The pics are from online. Nice looking material.

The touches of yellow make it look very floral and 3D (as opposed to snowflake-like).

The yellow sure does give the flowers some depth.

What I heard when it comes to the large scale of pattern cabbing is a bit of a challenge trying to keep a full pattern on the cab.

Is it calcite and graphite like the Austrian material? www.goldenpinolite.ca/ And those big flowers remind of Chrysanthemum stone from China.
