I made this cab as a backup in case my turritella cab entry for the December 2020 Cab Challenge didn’t work out. This is the best of 3 horn coral agate cabs I made. This cab’s dimensions are 18.7 mm x 27.4 mm x 5.5 mm. This first picture shows the front side. The last picture is the preform slab after I tumbled it to check durability.

Oh my gosh, oh my gosh!!! The colors of this horn coral are stunning! I've found quite a bit of horn coral, but it's all been white, with the exception of one piece that has a purple tint to it...but nothing even close to the vibrant colors in this piece. Great job on the cab!

Orbs in horn coral! Just beautiful.

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."
