Steph Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 The colors look very close to snowflake obsidian. But a reversed pattern from what I'm used to seeing. (used to white splotches on black. This is more like black splotches in white.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoop Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Steppin' way back and thinking about how it looks vs. what you say about it.... Feel & weight... We just had Corian counter tops installed.... Could it be something like that?? There are people doin' some fun stuff with Corian scrap (see below...) I'm sure it could be put into a sphere polishing machine... Corian Search on Esty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ann Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 I've managed to scrape together a few gutta percha marbles and although they're like hard rubber, they're pretty light, weight-wise. Almost feel like paper mache. And the designs are pretty intricate -- more swirls and curlicues, etc. than spots. I have couple of them with bright colors -- red and orange -- but usually they're very swirly browns/tans. But then they're also pretty hard to find, and I haven't seen all THAT many.
