Tactile Agate and some backlit too


Recommended Posts

I just love backlighting Agates.
The first two are 7/8’”. The third one is 3/4".
Sometimes you can see the hit-marks in hand—sometimes not. Backlighting them will reveal their true nature and history.
Have you ever wondered about the damage that you do not like on your favorite glass marbles, well these could have been the culprit. Glass killers these were.

The last one is very tactile. I cannot member feeling the facets on an Agate like this before---very cool to feel them( for an old dude with crusty fingers especially:character-smileys-238: ). This one had no hit-marks—odd really—to me at least. I wish that I could get an image of the facets on this one—it is just full of them. 
It appears to have some sort of inclusion in it--I am calling it a dinosaur bird finger bone:confused-smileys-327:.

Enjoy and---Backlight them All!!!!
Marble—On!!
