Thread: New to me Washita Lily White

I realized i posted my pics on this stone in the wrong place so i will put it here.

Picked this on up on eBay for a decent price. Ive been watching them so i had an idea on what they go for. Plus with the help of a friend here on SRP. Going by the label it was made around 1930 as it doesnt say Norton anywhere. It came with the original box and by the glue and splinters on the back of the stone i can tell its the right stone for the box. And thats good since the label is on the box. 1 7/8 x 5 3/4 x 1.

The top surface is dished about 1mm so not much. Guessing it has a great burnished finish. So i think i will lap the glue side so it can be used for bevel setting or course work.

So here is a couple picks of it including a pic of a label one off www that matches this label as mine is hard to see. So for your rock viewing pleasure...
