Oh I should give an update on these: ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52466830688_38a54d157c_c.jpg) Tumbled a couple of pieces like these which are supposed to be petrified limbs, and I believed they disappeared...They must be soft, or the tumbled form became too unrecognizable. I bet that was a shocker!

Those 2 orby ones are gorgeous! Love the colors, too.

That looks spectacular! They look like large enough to cut?

Take the side with the druzy pocket. Cut it a lil thicker to dome from the girdle. Easier to show than explain

Love the colors and the brecciation in the last one. One of the Gobi ones looks like willow creek!
