Any idea what these are?

Any way to find out what these are?

 

Agates? Are they as yellowish as they appear in the photo?
Are some polished/tumbled and others not? That would fit with a collection of beach agates.

 

Are there bubbles in the broken stone? Can you get a closeup of the broken face of the larger stone?

 

Citrine is a possibility if they're stone; so is fluorite.

 

Yes some are polished. I am not sure about the bubbles. I am looking for my jewel magnifier.

 

I'm still tending toward a collection of beach agates; but yes, a good photo of the broken face would help; agate usually shows conchoidal fractures. Someone with a rock tumbler might well have agates, some polished, some not - I certainly do.....

The polished ones are too smooth to have been naturally polished, and agate is far more commonly tumbled than fluorite or citrine. Some beaches have a more yellowish character to their agates than others, so the color does not rule out beach agate. One could do a hardness test, or see what scratches them, and what they scratch, if one had some samples of other rocks to compare. Fluorite has a hardness of Mohs 4; citrine is 7, and agate about the same, 6.5-7. Glass is 5.5, so agate or citrine will scratch glass, but glass will scratch fluorite.
In my area it would be pretty hard to find a collection this size of fluorite or citrine, by scavenging beaches.

 

From left to right using the above picture, which one needs a closer photo?

 

7 from the left,3rd from the right.... need a good closeup of the surface of the fracture. Nothing in the photo appears to be agate. Where were the stones found?

 

I found them at an estate sale in Portland Oregon. I think I paid $1 or $5, I can't remember which. But the guy was a jewelry maker. There were all kinds of rings made waiting for stones. I hope I captured what you are looking for.

 

Looks like "large" spherical bubbles and probably glass or possibly it is an enhydro quartz crystal with a water bubble,but too hard to tell with a photo.The other stones could be quartz,feldspar or a number of other stones.

 

The first three in that row have a pink or reddish color to them. I did not notice until the pictures.

 

Photograph the 5 untumbled stones on a white background and a good close up of the stone with red,they are probably Oregon sunstone a feldspar.

 

There are actually 4 untumbled.

 

Photographing against a white background is always best if you want people to see what kind of stone it is. Since there are so many transparent stones, colour is very important.

 

Good to know thank you

 

Good information, that they came from a jewelry maker. I'd suggest that likely means a rock-hound who collected and tumbled various rocks to make jewelry out of them, rather than a professional jeweler.
And that would fit well with Oregon sunstone, Oregon beach agates, or a number of Oregon stones; and is also consistent with having a mix of tumbled and rough stones.
