Here’s a couple Red Lace both 4”. The first one is totally different than the second both are from the same rock. In the first pic you can see where I might have ground it down a bit to far as you can see brain matter LOL The second one has vugs all over.

Both stunning spheres! That material is amazing. The sphere shows the depth of the pattern in a way a cab could not.

I'm not a fan of Red Lace as cabbing material but in Spheres apparently it works quite well.  I think I have seen too many band separations in Red lace.  Great Spheres as always!  Did you pack your vugs during the sphere process and if so what did you use?

Those came out great Jay.  That one vug is huge...maybe you can stash some extra coin in there.  :toothy10:
