gorgeous cuts Mel, love the red and white, even with the fracture/seam the orange moss/flame is a fascinator.

yeah, that's what I'd do too. Its just gorgeous. I think the edges of the lacy areas sort of look like pinolith.. but the material in this us much more exotic. truly beautiful stuff! thanks for showing it to us!

from the conversation on that board I gather the form and color are rarely found. It garnered a lot of ooohs and aahs (justly so, I think!). Just really a neat piece of fossil jasper.

The smell of grape blossoms is one of the most heavenly scents, I started grapes here but so far they have died out in the winter, got to go to a hardy concord instead of the garden varieties I have tried so far. Leaves are edible too. Looks like you will have a good crop. I really Like the table and the cute car, I have a few herbs too, thyme, oregano, walking onions, rosemary, peppermint. Trying to add a new one each year. How many pickles do you put up each year? blueberries look great, do you have more than one variety?
