168.0 gms of sculpted iceberg glory. My all time favorite! |
I may refuse to sell this one. The only circumstance I can imagine in which I would sell is if it were to a very,
very loving home! If you're the one, price doesn't matter. If you're not the one, no worries. $1500.00 (#LDG1680) |
 |
156.6 gms. A beauty! |
Here's the biggest one we acquired at the Tucson show in 2002. It's gorgeous, with all surfaces glossy and ventifacted.
It is slightly cloudier than the specimen above due to tiny bubble inclusions. $650 (#LDG1566) SOLD |
 |
125.4 gms. Flawless |
$550SOLD |
 |
96.4 gms |
Subtle interlayering of clear and bubble-inclusion rich layers. Beautiful piece, displays well. $385 |
 |
83.6 gms Chondrite streaks! |
A fabulous, highly polished (naturally by the wind---)specimen with clove brown meteoritic dust inclusions which
are very visible due to the exceptional clarity of this superb stone. $450SOLD |
 |
68.8 gms; half highly transparent, half milky with planar bands
of tiny bubbles. |
Another flawless beaut. Nicely sculpted by the wind-blown sands of the desert.$300 (#LDG688) |
 |
66.4 gms |
Flawless, great form. Misty bubble inclusion layers. $250Sold |
 |
65.9 gms, definite unusual color! |
Even at my latitude, this piece shows a definite olive green tint. Several layers rich in inclusions (bubbles and
probable fine cristobalite). Exceptional. $275Sold |
 |
64.6 gms. Side View of a very neat display piece! |
A very nice 64.6 gm chunk that stands like an iceberg! Cheaply priced at $175. (#LDG646) |
 |
58.4 gms |
A very pleasing piece with beautiful sculpted form and high polish. $240 |
 |
58.3 gms |
Delicate curtains of oriented flattened bubbles give this ventifact a silky chatoyance. $225 |
 |
57.5 gms. Deep fluting! |
This one has unusually sharp and deep parallel fluting. Very ornate. $225 |
 |
55.6 gms. |
Another classic, with very ornate rounded pitting and grooving. Nice greasy luster. $225SOLD |
 |
53.9. One of the very best we've ever had!!! |
This is gem clear with superb polish and amazing ventifacted form. If I was looking to pull a specimen from this
page for our personal collection, this would be the one (and I reserve the right to do so!).
If you are interested in a meditation stone that is exceptionally pleasing to hold, and has an amazing internal
glow, this is the best we have, and there is a very real chance we will never see another of this quality! $650 Sold |
 |
53.2 gms. Glorious sculpture! |
Interesting moderately milky interior due to finely dispersed bubbles. Some dark chondritic dust inclusions visible.
The crowning glory of this piece is its wonderful all-over pitting, ventifacting, and polish, like melted ice!
$215 (#LDG532) |
 |
51.3 gms. Much nicer than the picture shows---- |
Great overall sculpture with planar internal bubble-rich layering and deep external fluting. Good polish on all
surfaces. $185 (#LDG513) |
 |
A big one at 49.9 gms with excellent transparency, full of cristobalite
spherules! |
An exceptionally beautiful specimen with abundant small hemispheric pits. The value is compounded by the special
combination of lots of obvious white cristobalite devitrification spherulites and the highly transparent matrix
that allows them to be seen. A real winner! $220 (#LDG499) reduced |
 |
48.1 gms. Milky, resembling paraffin wax. |
I mostly select for gemmy clarity, but this one is such an unusual semi-opaque and quite uniform milky color that
we had to have it. $170 |
 |
44.5 gms. Excellent chatoyance! |
Viewed from some directions, this piece is typical straw yellow and quite transparent. But rotate it, and it becomes
silky white and semi-opaque. (Think of fiber optics spheres. It's similar to that). $175 |
 |
44.4 gms. Very ornate sculpture |
This has a flat base and a very convoluted top, with deep pits and grooves. Nice. $180 |
 |
44.0 gms. Ventifact |
Interesting wind facets. Quite clear with curtains of white bubbles. $150 |
 |
43.1 Not as lemony yellow as the picture shows |
This one has a surface like a giant molar tooth. I think the weird photo color results from the exceptional jelly-like
clarity of this piece. The bottom side has a very large pit that your index finger tip fits nicely. A great specimen!
$180Sold |
 |
41.3 gms. Layered chondrite dust!!! |
Here's a real winner! Delicate fine pitting, good polish, and high clarity layers reveal planar brown meteoritic
dust streaks. A very unusual specimen. $185Sold |
 |
38.6 gms, Meditation stone supreme |
An exemplary wind-sculpted ventifact with cupped worry-stone facets. High gemmy clarity with a couple of faint
brown meteoritic dust whisps, a local misty curtain of fin bubbles, and even a couple of sand-sized white cristobalite
spheres. As a meditation stone, this will be hard to beat! $195Sold |
 |
37.5 gms Relatively flat |
Greasy-luster, dimpled surface, lots of bubble inclusions. $110 |
 |
37.4 gms. Classic gem ventifact! |
Here's another one of my favorites from this whole page. Gemmy clarity, superb form, worry-stone facets. Great
display piece or meditation stone. You'll love this one. $185Sold |
 |
37.1 gms. Chatoyant |
This one has a nice silky chatoyant flash and nice deep fluting. The bottom side that was buried in the sand
is matte. $110 |
 |
34.1 gms. Pale amber with bubbles and cristobalite! |
Nice clarity makes this a great piece to display internal bubbles and small cristobalite spherulites. $102
(#LDG341)Sold |
 |
33.1 gms. |
Cloudy with relatively large bubbles, some of which are breached at the surface giving this specimen a somewhat
porous skin look. $75 |
 |
31.4 gms. Ventifact |
Very high transparency and interesting form. $95 |
 |
30.6 gms. Thin, transparent, and packed with cristobalite! |
A fantastic 30.6 gm specimen selected for it's fine display of white cristobalite devitrification spherulites.
The front surface is a smoothly curved, wind-polished conchoidal fracture face that provides a great window into
the interior. Great display piece. $195 (#LDG306) |
 |
30.5 gms. |
Nice complex pitting, slightly milky translucence. $90 |
 |
29.9 gms (#LDG0299A) |
Packed with large bubbles that breach the skin giving it a porous look like the skin of an orange. $50 |
 |
29.9 gms (#LDG0299B) Chondrite wisps! |
Very transparent and polished providing a nice view of two arcuate layers with brown meteoritic dust. $150 |
 |
29.2 gms. |
Nice smooth form. Faint small wisp of chondrite dust and a projecting white knob milky with bubbles. It looks like
the milky layer was more prone to wind erosion. $75 |
 |
28.7 gms |
Nice clarity with thin bubble curtains. $80 |
 |
28.2 gms |
Exceptionally rough and pitted melted ice look. Full of bubbles and indistinct cristobalite that created pores
large enought to capture grains of desert sand. $70Sold |
 |
27.3 gms Chondrite wisps |
Another high transparency molar-tooth-shaped specimen with irregular spots and wisps of meteoritic dust. $80 |
 |
26.2 gms. |
