Water fall agate
« on: June 29, 2016, 12:57:51 PM »
A friend ordered a knife for her husbands birthday. She picked out the knife blank and the stone.
The agate comes from the monte Cristo mt in Nevada, she wanted a Nevada rock that I collected
And a close up pic of the stone

No spheres.  I could do marbles. What I can find is only two in thick at the most. I can do little ones but they don't do much for me.   BIGGER is better

I love it.  Awesome polish and the lines in the agate sure play off the Damascus blade.  The incandescent light make the yellows and blues a bit strong in the photo.  Is the Agate bluish?

Here is a cab from there. The agates are a seam type and they can have interesting patterns
