    What does this look like to you? Hard stone, takes a mirror polish with milky slurry.

    It looks like a Nakayeschefrankoniculeoshanter. Quite rare, but worthless without the label.

    If it is very hard and fine and has any red streaks or patches on it and is a greyish blue in color, it could be a charnley forrest hone from the UK. Just guessing as I can not see the colors very well in the photo.
