Here's my entry, Painting Stone. Super soft and I know it won't have as high of a shine as the agates but I still like it. Oh and excuse the label I forgot to get a picture before I cut it and it's the only one I had. 🙃 ![](https://res.cloudinary.com/mt67/image/upload/v1718681244/tmvf7jrhkjhx4osh33c6.jpg) ![](https://res.cloudinary.com/mt67/image/upload/v1718681270/g0s3kvjl8fqv83i0dvut.jpg) ![](https://res.cloudinary.com/mt67/image/upload/v1718681289/sedtyfbjbppugmsbnhhf.jpg)

Miket-that is a great example for dendritic and excellent cut on hard to control material.

How do y’all have so much dendritic?! I actually can’t think of any that I have in my collection!! I just happened to go to a show the first weekend of the month though and I picked up some cheap slabs, fill a bag for 5 bucks, a rockhound nerds dream.🤓 When I got home and was admiring the slabs I found one with some dendrites!! I’ve already cabbed it up. Unless I stumble into some other dendritic here it’ll be my entry. Will post it eventually.👍

Would have sent you a mix.

I've got a few possibilities I'm looking at for dendritic. I'd like to do some Cheetah. It's not the conventional shaped dendrites but I think that' what the black spots are considered. I'm curious if others thinks that would "qualify".
