Brian Head Agate Cabochons
I had never heard of this material before, but recently acquired a small irregular shaped nugget that has
won me over to this agate. The colors run through grey to purple with white plumey areas in the otherwise translucent
agate, and black manganese dendrites scattered throughout. It comes from Brian Head, Utah and is a little known agate
that should be more popular in my opinion. If anyone has a source for this material, and wants to trade me for some,
I'd be happy to work something out!!!!!
