Hot Item Balmorhea Metallic Plume Agate Slab Holiday Edition [t6RcsqiX]

This material from the agate fields of Balmorhea Lake in Texas is not only showing the black plume clusters in white and blue agate it's known for; it's also showing a fine frosting of light gold pigmentation across the branching of the plumes! These accents add definition to the plume formations, giving them more of a 3D effect, while at the same time adding the most beautifully delicate shimmer along the edges of the plumes. An incredible piece for metallic/plume agate collectors; it should also cut some killer cabs. Texas produces some of the most beautiful dendritic agates in the world! In the interest of best revealing the plumes, I cut this slightly thinner than 1/4".

This is a rough, unpolished slab. Please observe images closely for flaws, as some degree of that is normal. Pictured wet and dry.
