Seller's Description
Stinkingwater Plume agate comes from Harney County in eastern Oregon and is valued for its white plumes (featherlike inclusions). Stinkingwater agates and petrified woods are named after a creek and mountain pass in the area. Despite the name, this agate variety can have a refined, delicate appearance. This piece features the famous feathery white plumes in translucent, creamy-to-white holding chalcedony. There are some tiny vugs visible from close-up and a larger vug lined with sparkling crystals. An impressively large example with a tiger claw (or tooth) shape. This would best be used in an open-back setting to allow it to receive lighting from behind. The back is not polished. The name of the area where found comes from sulfurous hot springs in the vicinity. A big, bold example of this desirable agate variety that will be an attention-grabber in any jewel into which it is set or in your gem collection.
The photos were taken with the material dry under natural light.

Shipping
Get free shipping on additional items when combining for Flat Rate delivery
- If you are purchasing multiple items within 14 days of your first buy or auction win from me, it is usually possible to combine and pay for the items together to save on shipping costs. If they all fit into one Flat Rate box, the additional items ship at no extra postage cost. If you wish to take advantage of combined shipping of multiple items bought during a 14-day period, do not pay until you have purchased your last item (or after your last auction item has closed), then send me a message requesting combined shipping. Do NOT pay prior to receiving the adjusted invoice. Because the items I sell vary widely in size, weight and fragility, some items may not be able to be shipped together, or may require a larger box. If you are bidding multiple bulky or fragile items, please provide me with your zip or postal code and ask me for an estimate of the cost. After your request, a new invoice will be issued with the postage adjusted.
- Notes:
Once you make a payment, I typically arrange shipping within 24 hours and it will no longer be possible to combine additional items. Before paying, please wait until your last item has closed, then request an invoice (on the payment screen, click "Request amount").

Question From xbalidocious [0] Thu 03 Dec 2020 13:38:11 (EDT) Hi!
Noticed you were not on the forum
and I just wanted to wish you a very
Happy Holiday! Ali

Answer From rocks2dust [+383] Thu 03 Dec 2020 14:26:30 (EDT) Hi Ali, Thanksgiving was great - the limited number actually made talking
more thoughtful and meaningful. The forum became just too much - I find I
do better without coming across over-confident but incorrect assertions or
attempting to redress misinformation. I've cut back before, but this time I
won't be going back despite my respect for many/most there. That said,
thank you for the kind sentiments. I hope you also have a great holiday
season - now that you've moved back to our northern latitudes, you no
doubt are again aware of how welcome are those bright spots during our
dimmer, shorter days!
