On this page: Spiderweb Obsidian Spiderman Jasper Chinese Writing Stone Lilypond Marble Dendritic Limestone Morrisonite Next page: Translucent Stones Back to previous page: Tranquil Garden Spiderweb Obsidian I've always been fascinated by the architecture of spider webs. Imagine my surprise when I came across them--caught in stone! These midnight-blue cabs are from Guadalajara, Mexico, and have natural spider web patterns in a pale blue--Stunning! Unpolished backs.

Spiderman Jasper Look at this stone and tell me you're not picturing the red webbing sailing out and attaching itself to the tops of skyscrapers! All the cabs have satin-finish backs.

TG218S $98.00 Chinese Writing Stone It seems weird that a stone that looks so completely Oriental actually comes from California, but there it is. I'm happy to be able to provide a refreshed and expanded supply of this popular stone. These are particularly lovely pieces, with lots of "writing" across their surfaces. Satin-finish backs.

Lilypond Marble This is such an intriguing stone: Mined in China, its chocolate-milk-browns, cool whites and pastel green are reminiscent of shady pond edges. It's not a "loud" stone, but it attracts attention because it is so unusual. I have a couple in a matte finish; the remainder are polished. A giant Lilypond piece can be found with our large stones on our Rare Finds page. Please note thicknesses as many of these stones are "pillowy."

Dendritic Limestone These stones were cut by master lapidarist
Keith Horst, and they have an unusual shape. The fronts are flat, left in their
natural state, with the dendrites in some cases spilling a bit over the smooth
sides, which are not beveled inwards.
