There ya' go again. Another really interesting stone I'd never heard of.

I like the shape you did here. The slight curvature of the sides makes it stand out from the crowd.

By the way, how do you come up with all these rocks none of us have. Did you know the guy who invented them, or what?

Or - more likely - I must still just be that much of a newbie.

I found them. 45 years of cutting finding cutting hones your eye.

Awesome that you found all these excellent stones.

I am still a newbie - have only been cutting for 15 years. Have been able to guess correctly that some random landscape rocks, etc, would polish well and be reasonably attractive.

Your knowledge of geological processes and ability to spot favorable characteristics visible in "wild" rocks have produced so many great pieces that I'm humbled. Also grateful that you share them with us here.

Thanks. I grew up in a mining family and loved rocks , how complex they are .
