Crazy lace agate is a beautiful semi precious gemstone from Mexico. Urban legend has it, that it brings happiness to it's wearer. Like other Agates, and quartz variety rocks, it has a hardness of 7 on the Moh's hardness scale. A diamond is a 10 on the scale. The hardest substance known on earth. The beautiful example of the gemstone is one I cut myself. It's semi translucent with a tight banded pattern. This one will be set in Sterling silver and made into a ring or pendant. It takes a brilliant polish and is hard enough for everyday wear and tear. Rocks and minerals have facinated me since I was a child. So many beautiful and amazing treasures the earth creates.

    Thank brother I appreciate your feedback and upvote.) I have to get some more turquoise cut soon. So much easier to work with, and makes for a pretty quick sale.

    I gave my daughter a pile of rocks (that I gathered when I was a kid) for Christmas! Hahaha! She was so good about it! Not every kid would think a pile of rocks are cool but she does! #ProudMoment

    My idea is to get a commercial rock polisher. That way we can spend quality time shinning up rocks together!
