    The blue tiger eye is absolutely beautiful! Never seen or even knew there was blue tiger eye. The cuts on the rest are also beautiful.

    Awesome pieces! I really liked the iris with all the "sections", and also the blue tigereye-both my favs. Congrats on being invited to have a booth at the show! I likely won't make it, but if I do, I'll be sure to go see your booth! Thanks for sharing these great rocks!

    Nice cuts Theo, with obsidian, especially rainbow, is to go 12-15% angle from parallel... That gathers all the colors...👌

    I had not heard of blue tigers eye for years, I bought a chunk about 50 years ago and never did cut it. I seem to remember having some red tigers eye from the same time also, no idea where it is, although I suspect it was dyed. I do not do lapidary work any more but I kept many of my stones. I watch your videos for the fun nostalgia it brings.

    I love them all but that blue tiger's eye took my breath away! I have a slab that I bought at a rock and gem show last year that I am now sure is Teepee Canyon agate. I wasn't sure till watching this video but it looks like a positive I.D. Thanks Theo!

    Yess, very beutiful blue Tigereyeand the yellow-brown ones, those I have seen earlier, but never seen blue ones, that was fun to see. Was that Agatslab really that blue that you showed for a while, I think with a light behind it, it does not look blueish without a flashlight?? and that Teepee-agat with that pinkish was beutiful.

  • @WorldofRockhounds
    @WorldofRockhounds ปีที่แล้ว +1

    With the rainbow - since typically the layers are mostly uniform - you can cut with the later and work down. That's what a lot of carvers to to make hearts or clovers from the layers. OR like you said, cut at an angle somewhere in the 40 some odd degree to expose as many layers as possible :)

    Nice rocks Theo.
    I have a request. Could you do a video on positioning and cutting tiger eye, labradorite, and rainbow obsidian to get the chatoyancy right. I've tried to cut labradorite in the past and was disappointed in the results. Don't know if, the labradorite was poor quality or I cut it wrong. The tiger eye cabs I made showed chatoyance when viewed from an angle but less so when viewed from directly overhead.

    • @TheoKellison
      @TheoKellison  ปีที่แล้ว

      That is a great idea for a video! I love Labradorite and tiger eye but they both can be super touchy, if you dont cut on the color plain just perfectly you end up having to tilt the rock to get the flash. Im about to make a big order of labradorite so ill make sure to make that video as soon as it gets here!

    Hey so I'm a rock junky anywhere and I mean anywhere if there are rocks in looking for shiny or sparkles advisor found my first geode 2 years ago and it was the most amazing day of my life well my first full geode. Anyways I have this rock that I saw at the motel where my dad was staying and it has the finest pockets of geodesic and tiny fossils. I would love to send you a picture just to get an idea of what you think I am pretty sure it's an agate maybe blue. Which is super funny I didn't even notice the blue banding in the rock I was just excited it had all the other stuff I liked. But yeah if you have any suggestions or could take a look at it for me. I would be crazy happy
