Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:16122883 | Country/Region of Manufacture: United States |
This listing offering is for an old collection specimen of quality light pink fortification agate polished face cut limb cast petrified wood specimen from the Paulina / South Fork of the Crooked River in Central Oregon! It displays delicate, intricate and tight banding throughout the beautiful, highly translucent pink host agate and closed macrocrystalline quartz center! The pink agate is a pleasing fortification chalcedony and is quite calming and relaxing! Indoors, the specimen definitely glow...s pink. However, outside, on an overcast day, the limb cast can appear to have blue and pink agate pigmentation! From my understanding, the entire limb cast producing area along the South Fork of the Crooked River has been disc plowed by local residents utilizing tractors and there are no more specimens to be had. The fossil wood cast has a flat, well polished face and weighs 3lbs 1.3 ounces. The specimen has all natural termination and the exterior is very interesting resembling negative calcite crystal impressions! The vintage limb cast measures 135mm by 100mm and the gem is 82mm deep. All pictures taken while the well polished, excellent agate limb cast specimen was dry. I will combine shipping for multiple purchases as long as the specimens can be packaged in a manner that minimizes the potential for damage.
