Apache Canyon Slab 16

Apache Canyon dendritic rhyolite is an increasingly rare material from Deming, New Mexico that is noted for its awesome desert landscape scenes.  Dark maroon silhouettes on a reddish/pink, and occasionally white/yellow background produce some amazing “rock pictures”.   A very hard rhyolite, it takes a great polish, making exceptional finished pieces.  A definite “must” for any serious artisan or rock collector. Origin:  New Mexico Dimensions:  2.5" x 2" and approximately 6.2 mm thick.  Weight = 46 grams. Shown wet.  Not polished.  No known flaws.
