Thread: stone Id again!!

Well I was sold this as a charnleywood forrest stone. Was only about 30 dollars so not bothered too much if not. I have cleaned it and made start at lapping it. This stone is hard. the size is 9.5 by 2 uneven bottom looks like it was broke out outside cut from rock narrows from 20mm to 10mm length wise.





Any one know what it actually is

First picture, to me, looks like a Thuringian but the second does not. Can we see several more pictures with and without slurry and from varying heights and distances?

Varying heights is not going to help, the main problem is my camera quality. The stone is actually a olive green colour and raises a white slurry with a slight green tint. very hard and fine finisher from first impressions.

Looking at the second picture I can't say it's not a Charnley Forest. It looks hard, somewhat glassy and I don't see any speckles.

Its going to be hard to tell from two up close pictures but if you say the slurry is creamy it definitely sounds like a potential thuringian.

Well I will try and take this to someone with decent camera and see what I can do about pics as mine is messing with the colour so thats not helpful

From available pictures I can not say for 100% but at present I would say it is not CF.
