This rock was in a recent batch but I had pulled it aside and forgot to photo it until today. Moroccan agate with awesome parallax banding. As the rock is rotated I can see pretty far into it. Chuck

Awesome! The layer-y middle section reminds me of electron microscope images for some reason...

Chuck, are layers filled or open? Superb! Thank you. Completely filled with clear agate. Smooth finish across the bands. I can see at least half way into the rock between the layers. Chuck
