This is an Indian Paint Stone slab. To our knowledge, the material comes from the Death Valley area of California, where collecting is no longer possible. It is a soft rock and polishing results in a satin sheen rather than the glossy one. It is roughly 3 1/4" x 2 1/4", and it tapers in thickness between 7 and 19 mm thick (partial end-piece, with a slightly angled slice on the back). It weighs 140 grams, or 4.9 ounces.
