This is a really pretty Condor Agate, polished on the face. It shows chromatography in several areas of the stone (chromatography is color change in the agate that does not follow the banding). In natural lighting the coloring looks a little deeper than it looks in the photos. It is just beautiful, with the blue and bright red contrast, and it sits nicely both directions length-wise. It measures 2 1/2" x 1 1/2" x up to 1" thick, weighing 68 grams, or 2.4 ounces. It's a beautiful specimen!

This is a Teepee Canyon agate. It has a light polish on that gorgeous face (look at the close-up in the 3rd photo!). The material can be a rare find since no new mining claims have been allowed. Most pieces come from old collections, like how we found this beauty. The sliced face has a light polish on it, the rest is the natural stone. It lays back nicely at an angle, but can also stand on two sides if desired. It is roughly 3" x 2 1/4" at the wider point, and 3/4" up to 1 1/4" thick. The weight is 248 grams, or 8.7 ounces.

This is a polished piece of a batch of mostly purple with black rough we acquired sometime back. After much help trying to determine what it is, we had it analyzed by the GIA (Gemological Institute of America) and their determination was that it is 'Dumortierite, Tourmaline, Rutile and possible additional minerals.' This piece has one sliced face that has a polish on it, while all other sides are the natural uncut stone. It stands easily on one end and lays on the side a couple different ways. The measurements are 2 3/4" x 2" on the polished face x apx 1 1/2" thick. It weighs 14.4 ounces, or 405 grams. It is a nice specimen of some unusual material.

This Amethyst Stalactite slice has a nicely-formed center tube and is surrounded by dark purple Amethyst crystals. On the 'back' side the tube has faded away and there is just a subtle color change in the center. The tan residue visible in some of the crystals might be removable with a little cleaning, not sure. The size of this one is about 3" x 2" and 17-18 mm thick. It weighs 124.2 grams, or 4.4 ounces.

This pair is a dark Agate with some Carnelian swirls in it. We think it is probably Brazilian, but we don't know that for sure. The sides are natural and unpolished, as visible in the main photo and last two. The other photos show the sides wet, giving an idea what they would look like if polished (polishing can be done if requested for an additional cost of $45 for one face, both sides). Both sides together, it weighs 5 lbs, 2.5 ounces and measures roughly 4" x 4" with one side 2" thick and the other 2 1/4." In natural lighting it is closer to how it looks on the light background. (Additional shipping cost for International, please contact us before buying.)

Agate Bookends Item: 4087 Price: $30.00
This is a set of bookends cut from a natural, unique stone with fossil shells in it. It's a neat specimen piece with a rock of some type embedded into the side, protruding out when viewed one way, and a very worn, empty cavity that looks like it once held another rock. They are not fully polished but have had a light grinding on one matching side, and a little bit more of a polish on the other main side (1st photo) - just enough to make the definition of the fossils a little more intense. Together they weigh 5 lbs, 13.5 ounces. Best suited to support medium size, non-heavy books. Better polishing can be done upon request ($45 for one face, both sides). (Additional shipping cost for international buyers. Please email before purchasing.)
