I got these years ago and sold them years ago, but it has always bugged me what they are. I'm not real great on agate ID. I think I asked this before, but got no clear answer. Maybe you know. They are beautiful and small.
Palest blue and pink with very fine polka dots.

Hold on I’ll see if I can find the name I have seen those years ago to. Seems those they didn’t last to long on the market I think because it was a small find. Not positive about it though. Possibly Kingsley north was selling them? I can’t remember the name either.

I believe this is them the predominant colors were red & pinks. The polka dots are hematite that are either brilliant red or can fade to lighter colors of pinks. I can’t find pictures of them that are cut that I did print. ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240707/cb445c3b0c093b3d741738c76f2cac13.jpg) ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240707/e36208952dd667fb8a004087b5c1565a.jpg)

Thanks! The dots are red and not hematite, but you may be on the right track.

Also, they were a gift from someone who would not have bought them from KN. I think I got them in abt 2005- maybe longer ago.

Potato- Potada. So I got them mixed up! Hematite or iron oxide What’s the difference? Lol ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240707/1d230ca9ce7868602868e98bdefbc3b8.jpg) ![](https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240707/3a8bce5b2a938d851a13c74e3aa292c9.jpg)

rockjunquie - I remember seeing something similar in this collection, labeled inca agate. i don't know if it is the same, and if I come across it again I'll post a photo.
