"Old-School" Tumbler Rough
Product description
"Star Burst" Spiderweb Jasper aka Mexico Chrysanthemum stone from Chihuahua Area of Mexico. Also known as "Fireworks" Jasper it is actually a rhyolite.The star/spider patterns are crystals that have grown large after slow cooling. The stars on this piece are about 3/8"-1/2" in diameter. If you are cabbing rather than slabbing, you are in luck because it's easier to find a piece with smaller stars packed more densely. "Star Burst" jasper tends to form sharp edges, but not glassy fractures like obsidian. The stars run all the way through the piece and go around corners. They aren't surface features.It's from Chihuahua, Mexico most likely. Great refill for any beginner-novice tumblers, i.e., NSI, National Geographic, Dr. Cool, Smithsonian, Elenco & Pro Models Lortone, Chicago & Others. NOTE* This Bag DOES Not contain Grits, Findings, jewelry parts,or adhesives that may have been included with the original tumbler accessories. WARNING-Choking Hazard! Use Tumbling instructions from the tumbler manufacturer.WARNING-CHOKING HAZARD!
