    Default What do you thing: ID

    It's been a while since I blindly bought a box of stones but I did last week.
    It was said to be 4 stones, ended up 3 and 1 rubbing stone.
    What do you think?
    Green Thuringian is what I was thinking. The only thing funny is the size of the (what the think to be) rubbing stone. It's an exact match to the bigger stone
    Also pic'ed is a unmarked dark blue Thuringian for contrast.
    The green stone is 8" x 1 3/4", small rubbing stone 4"x1"
    The blue is 5" x 2 1/2"

    Yeah looks like that was a fortuitous buy. You got lucky !
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Big Thuringian of nice grade and could very will be an Escher branded one without the labels? I have seen large Escher stones before where the rubbing stone was the size of the small Thuringians you see on ebay often (5X1").


    Either way it is going to be just as good as an Escher, enjoy it!
