<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kevolee, post: 9429116, member: 2594&quot;]Hi, I am stumped again. I found this stone carving and took it too two shops that deal in rocks, minerals, crystals, etc. One was more of a new age type place but the owner seemed quite knowledgeable and the other was a long time shop that is a more traditional gem and rock shop. The first thought it was apatite and had no good guess as to the culture it might represent. The second said it was dyed stone with a glaze over it, though he wasn&#039;t sure what type of stone, and guessed African, but said he really had no clue. He also said that the carving and artistic aspect of they dye work indicated someone with artistic talent. I&#039;m wondering if there any other thoughts. It stands 8&quot; tall and weighs 2.8lbs. Thanks for any help, ideas or thoughts.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]435038[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]435039[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]435040[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]435041[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]435042[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]435043[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
