    The ones with the blue spots are known to be radioactive and can cause all sorts of diseases. PM me for my address as I have the proper method available for disposing of these safely. Send it down and you don't owe me anything ... just doing it out of concern for your safety and the goodness of my heart.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I thought part of the instructions from Escher said to always keep the stones free of oil?

    Either way, nice rocks.

    I think you should send it to Jimmy, he lives only a few hours from me. As the Mods of the hones forum, We will evaluate for you, along with our fellow Mods, and get back in touch with you. Thank you for your cooperation.

    The Mod Team....


    P.S. Holli's correct. Escher's should be used with water, No Oil, and why do you think they are Escher's anyway? Curious...?
    I've only seen the Y/G and B/G...

    Here are mine. I haven't been able to make proper pictures of these with correct colors. I just shot these now at night so they're not very clear.

    The fox stone label says you can use them with water or oil. I don't think they're Eschers and they might not even come from Thuringia. Oldengaerde thinks they're from Vosgienne instead.

    The inclusion in the big one looks green. The small one came in a Thuringian style box, so I assume that was a Fox/Goldfisch.
