No proof but I believe this to be a very rare rose Thuringian
Title of post is from the bay according to seller.
seller re-listed the stone, price dropped dramatically....but, what is it?

I like to see shots of the side of the stone too. Not sure what that is.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

The seller moves a lot of stone but I do not believe that he has ever set razor to stone so as a seller of hones he is unique.

Interesting stone. Most Thuringans I've seen are homogeneous in color more often than not. Whatever that is, looks more liks some sort of hybrid.

I don't think that hone has anything to do with:
1. CFs
2. Thuringians
2. Vosgiennes
3. Schwedenstein
4. Pierre de Lorraine
5. Goldfisch/Wetzlar
etc, etc, etc.
6. Rose Thuringian - a figment of the imagination, as is the so-called welsh thuringian.
I don't even think it is from the continent of Europe, as I have only ever seen three or four examples, all in the UK, and all fixed to paddles. I have a similar one myself - it changes colour a lot when wet, is fairly soft, and gives a remarkably good edge. What it is - I couldn't tell you
Regards,
Neil
