I was out rockhounding and located some pieces of Opalized Wood. I polished this one up hoping it would retain the black and white pattern. I turned out just as I had hoped. Thanks for looking chasfire

Thanks for the comments. I really like the contrast.
Haleysdream, I used my genie to grind it to a prepolish stage and then used cerium oxide on a wool carpet bull wheel.
