    This might not even be a hone, but it's hone sized and the texture feels right (Thuringian?)

    Can't make out the white sticker. And is that concrete on the edge?

    Kind of what I'm thinking as well. It looks kind of like concrete. I'm thinking hone re-made into a paper weight or door stop. It feels like an Escher feels

    The white sticker says "stone with Japanese writing" with the price

    Surely to be an excellent stone for our purposes though at any rate.
    For 20 bucks or less I'd give it a shot. I hate to find out later it was an unmarked Escher though....
