It is just a piece of the many moss agates I have. Don't really have a name. The dense almost plume pattern is like some of the Linda Marie material, but the color does not seem right. Even after I desaturated the reds, it still does not quite look like something I have a name for. The 1st box of Linda Marie I got did break a lot into smaller pieces when I cut it, and the plume did look more like moss. So, it could be that's what it is. In addition to pinks and yellows, there were a lot of vugs.

Pretty sure that is a Montana agate, but I was cutting some blackskin agate last year that had similar pattern.
Regardless, I think it is composed very well. It has good flow.

Thanks and hope you do as well Just as anything to do with rocks it takes time . Do you have any tips or tricks that would help me? I can think of many others on here you should ask besides me .... I just jumped in and with a attitude for each stone that I want to make you perdy and better then the last . I can't use a dop have tried many times to save on my fingers and nails but I can't get a feel for the stone like that . Good lighting is something I have changed a lot since I started and good Towels for hands and stone to speed up looking for scratches . You will learn in a few stones how to move and how wheels act pressures angles ect. Other then that practice and have fun
