Parting Shot: Lincoln Agate

0

“The small village of Lincoln, Oregon, is where this specimen of Lincoln Agate was found. It was originally acquired in 1965, but not by me, and it boasts a fascinating dendritic pattern around its outer edge. It measures about four inches across and is one inch thick, and I used carving techniques to reveal the best pattern.” – Bob Rush
