I get a lot of inquiries about this rare material so as the de-stash continues I've decided to let someone else have fun with these. This is not exactly the same material that I've posted cabs with before - this was from a thin seam found in the same location as the story goes.

If you're into creating horizontal picture jasper scenes this is right up your alley, along with some creative cutting maybe at an angle to maximize either the sky or the land. One or two killer cabochons from a wide spot in the them will easily cover the cost of this box.

I packed it a while ago but I remember for sure there are at least two pieces in the box and the total weight is 3.3 lbs.

Price for the box is $75 which includes flat rate padded envelope shipping (US domestic). Post in this thread to claim.

Paypal (friends and family) or Venmo please. Take $5 off if you can use Venmo and save me from having to move the money around.

Too bad I've not yet jumped down the slicing/polishing/cabbing rabbit hole. (Or, is it too bad?)

I'm glad you snagged it NDK! I was seriously considering pulling the trigger, but with 2 ton of rock already here I was having a problem justifying it. Glad you made the decision for me.

I was looking at some rough at thegemshop and was thinking a purchase this week would still count as a Christmas present...of course it would be for me...but still a present! LOL

I'll be waiting for that funny story!

But we sure will cut a slab or 2 and get a few nice cabs from it 👍

Same here - when I first got some I was expecting the stars to disappear but they stayed and were even enhanced by late stage polishing.

Enjoy! I'm surprised I let it go but glad you guys got it.
