Comment: Haven’t seen this stone before? Although there are many; and many types, of agate and jasper, some specific kinds aren’t abundant enough to be produced commercially. They may only be found as one or a few in random places; at very small, unique sources; or under conditions where excessive sorting through a large amount of unattractive material becomes too labor intensive to be worth any large commercial endeavor. This is one of those kinds of stones. We get this stone from its source. This stone may also be a charcoal black with cream to beige fine lined petrified wood. The appearance and form of many of these stones indicate this, but in other stones, the lines are so twisted and contorted that they don’t follow any typical patterns of petrified wood. Therefore the evidence is not apparent or conclusive enough to make a petrified wood determination. A unique, handmade, genuine semi-precious stone pendant, this piece is posted individually, not merely a representative item - what you see is what you get.
