<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 371823, member: 36"]I'd pay $8 all day. I'd say dyed howlite or ???, obsidian, malachite, mahogany obsidian, sodalite, aventurine, tigerseye, dyed something or other, and either obsidian or onyx. This is a newer piece, so it could go either way. </p><p><br /></p><p>Howlite has black veins in it generally, and magnesite has brown ones. Howlite's a good bet; the color is too vibrant and pure to be set this way if it's the real deal. My guess anyway; you never know what a random bloke in a shed will do! This bloke was in Mexico City, or had pieces assayed there at least.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
