Barstow, California this weekend!

I have multiple pounds of REAL Howlite tumbled stones for sale. For $16 you get an entire pound of stones. The photo shows one pound of material. This material is collected at Tick Canyon, chopped into pieces and tumbled in the USA, unlike most other howlite, which is actually Magnesite. http://www.gemsnail.com/Tumbled-Stones/154/1-pound-of-REAL-howlite-tumbled-stones-

Small but very nice Black Spinel cluster of crystals from Sri Lanka. Specimen is 19.55mm x 14.14mm. Crystals are very well formed, I had originally purchased this to cut the crystals but then couldn't bring myself to break it apart. There is only one of these. http://www.gemsnail.com/minerals/153/Black-Spinel-cluster

Celestite is not a stone that is tumbled often, as it is very soft. This material, coming from the deserts of California, is tougher than most material, so it is great to polish or tumble. You can even polish the material further, as this tumbled material is polished, but not hand polished, which gives the best results. http://www.gemsnail.com/Tumbled-Stones/155/one-pound-of-TUMBLED-CELESTITE
