This is a wonderful Laguna Agate from the Alianza Claim in Mexico, one of the most beautiful we have cut from that location. We have included several close-up photos so you can see the intricate details of this piece. It measures 3" x 2 1/4" at the widest points, and is a little less than 2" thick. The weight is 260 grams, or 9.2 ounces. It would be an awesome addition for any collector of agates.

This is a fantastic piece of Madagascar fossil wood - a complete 'round' slice, with highly desireable red coloring in it. It is polished on one side but not on the other. It measures 4 1/4" x 2 5/8" at the widest points, and between 9-10 mm thick, and weighs 113.5 grams, or 4 ounces. It is a wonderful specimen. (We have the next slice off this same branch as well, contact us if you are interested in the pair.)

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.)

This is a beautiful crystal specimen, full of a wonderful spray of crystals! It is roughly 2" x 1 7/8" x 1 1/2" and weighs 3.9 ounces, or 112.4 grams. The matrix has what we believe is green Fluorite in it, while the most captivating part of this is the spray of crystals on the other side. We think they're Quartz, but there is a lustre on them we're not used to on Quartz. It was collected by an individual whose treasures we acquired, collected between the 1950's and 1980's. This one was in a box labeled as Fluorite, and we're pretty sure the green IS Fluorite. He collected extensively in the Mojave Desert of California, and that's where we think this one was collected. The Fluorite areas on it fluoresce purple under UV light.
