    Default 'Galaxy' patterned Natural Combo Coticule

    Hi Guys

    Just wanted to share some pics of one of my vintage natural combo coticules. It's quite unusual looking - very beautiful to my eye. I know Coticules can be diverse in their appearance, but I really haven't seen one like this before. I have 5 (FIVE ) other vintage natural combos and glued combo BBW/Coticule stones, and I'm actually putting this one in the classifieds as I dont use it all that often and I'm looking to get some some good soaps and a quality brush - so this one must (sadly) go..

    It's 8" x juust under 2" and because it's a natural combo the separation line isn't perfect, so there's less coticule on one side than the other - (though there is still plenty of coticule for years and years of service as this stone is quite hard. It's buttery smooth to the touch and is lapped and ready to use...

    I just wanted to show it off here first and hear what the comments are on the unique patterning. Has anyone seen a coticule with this kind of patterning? And please feel free to share pics of your combination coticules.. I'll be posting a Show and Tell of my other vintage coticules soon..

    Dangit, if I hadn't just bought a coticule... I can't believe this has lasted five minutes at that price... hasn't anyone seen the price of coticules lately?? And to throw the Eyewitness on top of the deal... and shipping, too??? Oh man... someone's in for a great deal on this one.

    If you're even considering it.. you better move fast.. before I come to my senses.... mouse button finger twitchy....

    Yay! this crazy deal has been snatched. I'm glad, firstly since I made the sale, and secondly since I've got enough hones to be able to move this one onto a fellow member and make their day

    thanks guys for the great support.

    - Mike
