Thanks Ted n Kath, I found it late last year I'm thinking of turning it into a pendant or something, hav'nt made up my mind yet, it just sits in the jar with his mates It was a spin out to dig it up from about 8 inches and seeing straight away that it was a horse, doesnt need much imagination. looks like mid gallop or ballancing on a ball lol I also collect alot of other rocks from my travels eg, chrysophrase, amethyst, agate, zebra stone and my favorites...Astronomite.. polishes up nice, looks like little planets.I have not got any lapidary gear yet, just stock piling untill retirement. Then i'll have something to do... will post some other pics once i get more organised. Cheers Brian d(-_-)b |
