Stoner that is one incredible cab!!!!!! I have seen that type of Royal Sahara but never thought of peeling it like a spud and that looks like what you did in order to grab that pattern around the edges...Just fantastic and I have to say thus far that is one of the top 3 cabs I have seen of RSJ!!! Oh and the question someone made about it looking river tumbled, possiably as most Picture Jasper is from ancient mud flows but I think the reason for the tumbled looking skin is from the wind blown sands of the Sahara...There is still so much research that I am sure Oasis will be doing in getting a good grip on this Geological Phenomena... Again, thumbs Up Stoner!!!-Dale Rhode

Hi All!!!
You are welcome to visit our online store where we post material for sale and we also are starting to "eBay".
We originally found this material late last spring here in North Africa in the Sahara Desert (ergo; the name).
We live in the states, but are working the digsite right now. That's where I'm emailing from; N. Africa.
Anyways, we're happy to see everybody likes the patterns and we hope to continue to make this amazing jasper available for a loooong time!
We'll keep y'all posted on what our future plans are both here and on our webstore.
We are going to start an "Online Showcase" for finished cabs from lapidaries and all are welcome to submit finished RSJ cabs. We'll post your work and your name for 1000's to view.
Best regards;
Janet & George
