Slices Of Agate
Our best and prettiest-ever slices of polished agate, showing concentric rings of natural color. The slices range from 3" to 4-1/2" across and from 1/8" to 3/16" thick. We've seen samples from milky white to blue, purple, red, yellow and brown. No two alike, by definition. We'll choose. Think scientific specimens, framed art, coasters, trivets, paperweights, or skipping stones for rich kids who don't want to search the beach for flat stones.

Volcanic Popcorn Specimen
Volcanologists call these popcorn hyalite bombs because they're globs of molten lava that were spit out of vents on a volcanic cinder cone, flew through the air expanding (like popcorn), and came to rest as glass-rich pieces of hyalite. These are from Echo Mountain in the Medicine Lake Highlands of northern California, and yours will be approx 3-1/2" dia, give or take, since volcanoes won't spit to order.

What's The Point Of Crystals?
Crystals are for pointing toward you or away from you, depending on what you believe or want, or for polishing, or just for looking at. You get a 3-pack of quartz point crystals, approx 1" to 2-1/2" long, ready for psychic healing, jewelry, or plain old-fashioned lapidarian fascination. Your hunks of point crystal might have an actual point, might not: nature's like that.

The Driest Rocks On Earth
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
Tektites, called glass rocks, are formed when meteorites from outer space crash into our home planet and, by Jupiter, no rock collection is complete without one! The driest of all rocks, tektites are black to olive-green, and average less than .005% water. These samples will be roughly 1/2" to 1-1/4", and you'll get (2) to (4) of them, depending upon their size.

Ugly Outside, Beautiful Inside
Like a shar-pei, or Marty Feldman, cystoid geodes are not so attractive on the outside, but beautiful on the inside. Actually, they're among the geological world's most beautiful crystal formations. And these are pre-cracked, so you're guaranteed a beauty every time. They average 3" to 4" dia in varying shapes with high-grade quartz crystals inside. The halves fit together perfectly and are held with a rubber band to protect them in shipping.

Lapidarial Writing Instrument
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
Carry a polished rock collection with you in this lovely pencil, embossed with the AS&S name and logo below a clear-plastic, 5/16" dia tube filled with dozens of tiny, colorful polished stones. (Our sample had 44 of them.) True, the actual writing portion is only 3" of the 7-1/2" long pencil, but taken as a whole, it's a pocket-museum of lapidary arts with a little extra talent. We provide the pink eraser to plug the plastic tube at no extra charge.
