I shouldn't have narrowed my guess to Mexican. I do remember now reading about onxy being quarried in the Southwestern U.S. I don't know about Alabaster.

Oh no ... the picture didn't come through ....

Those would be some nifty and unusual foreigns if that's what they are. I like the hybrid Whitie idea, but would the wideness of the purple ribbon work against that guess? Translation: I can't help you narrow this down.

I dunno. That's weird. I tried to post one of your pics myself and it came up as a link for me also. Your Maybe-Vitros showed up okay in the other thread. Could it possibly be the space in the picture address? (Edit: After I hit submit that picture showed up. I had the address in IMG tags, which we don't usually need anymore.)

Nifty. Mexican Onyx?

... and yours, John? Some kind of Leighton?

Who? Not fumalicious, is it?

Well, that's a coy little thing.
