This is a cab I'm working on, and not sure what it is. Scott @shotgunner thinks it might me Kaleidoscope Jasper. Does this seem correct? rockjunquie, Tommy, Sabre52

Whats the hardness like? Colors match Cherry Creek jasoer but its pretty soft stuff. Some of the dead camel/lahontan stuff I gave Scott has colors like that out near the surface.

Looks quite a bit like some of the old Antelope jasper that came from eastern Oregon. Still see a few pieces occasionally at shows.

Nice! Pretty common color combination for jasper though. I'd say no on the kaleidoscpe. I would not be surprised if it was even a variation of Indian Fancy Jasper but it could be from a lot of jasper locations. Marsten Rch Jasper from Oregon looks pretty close to that sometimes too....Mel

Maybe lower cuts of marston but color and pattern is different. Smaller and more swirled looking ?? pattern in Marston,. TY Mel,

Out of all of your suggestions, I think Tela's suggestion of Belvedere Jasper looks the closest. Thanks everyone!
