HOLY SMOKES !!

Stunning cabs..

They are all super, but the Boulder Opal is just outstanding.. The top part looks like a metallic finish that might expect to see on some types of Chrysocolla that I have had..

I have to ask.. Do you have any rough/slabs that would be willing to sell?

Nice work !!

Thank you all forthe positive comments,


George,

I would love to if I had more of it.  There is a man not far from me that actually owns a mine in Aussi. I need to try to hook up with him. If I do and pick some up I will let you know.

I too would be interested in some rough material that resulted in your first cab. Just breath taking!
