- Indian paint
rock comes from Death Valley, California. This location has been
closed to collecting since Death Valley became a National Park and
this beautiful material is getting rather scarce.
- This indian
paint rock sphere is very elegant, with rare and wonderful colors
and very artistic patterns (all natural, nobody painted on this
stone). The almost white and yellow color and in general the
combination of all colors in this sphere are very
uncommon.
- Dale, the
spheremaker, made this wonderful indian paint rock sphere and his
workmanship is outstanding.
- Please note
that indian paint rock (not that it needs it) does not take a good
polish. Healed or sealed fractures are normal for this material
since it occurs in layers and the color from the hematite sipped
through the rock via those layers and fractures. Hematite is
responsible for most of the color as well as the dark lines which
shine very nicely.
- There is a
great variety of patterns and colors in this awesome sphere and it
is a real pleasure to hold and admire (I like indian paint
rock!).
- This
indian paint rock sphere is an outstanding collector's
item.
