Wish I could help you out with the ID, but I have no idea. It's a beautiful stone, though!

That is an odd one but very pretty. Problem with moss agate is it comes in so many varieties from so many locations. The only ones we have names for are those that show a type or pattern, colors etc common to a particular location. Ie Indian green moss usually looks very true to type as does a lot of Horse Canyon moss. Moss from other locations like the north Cady's In Cally or Rio grande Moss from Texas, exhibit all kinds of colors and patterns and are hard to separate out from moss from other locations. I've never seen that particular pattern you have in your stone so it could be from any number of locations and just be an atypical example. Also, to me, it almost has a plumy look to it which means it could be moss from one of the plume agate locations as both are often found together

This is definitely one we need to get to the bottom of, dangit! Because when we get a positive ID, it's another one that's going to be added to my "To Get" list! That is an awfully purdy rock right thar!
