Thanks Guys:-)
I appreciate it...

Here's a #5 hand gathered orange slag next to a hand gathered orange pee wee slag. The #5 came from my 25 count #5 c.a. slag box. Next is a killer quad twist bluezngreenz kork... Next is what appears in hand to be an opaque c.a. black base slag. Although, when back-lit it reveals a wonderful lavender/purplish transparent matrix. I really like the first single image of it because it looks as though one could reach in and grab the marble..

I assume this is a white based flame/swirl, although, it actually has more transparent red than white. With transparent red being the dominent color one can shine a light through this killer c.a. Kind of cool or in this case hot:-)

Hey, I'm sorry for sticking my pics in your thread, BT! I had meant to add them to Galen's where he said "CAC's, please". I got so mesmerized by your pics that I lost my mind and added my pics to the wrong thread.

What a way for me to start out in the new chat. I'm so embarrassed.

Sorry.

whoops, I forgot to answer the question about the small hand gathered oxblood in the second image in the thread.

I believe it is a very small narvarre, although I may be wrong again:-) It has a melted pontil with oxblood and egg yolk. If it is it has to be one of the smallest examples I have ever seen. It's 9/16" in size.... it's a small package with a huge punch!!! I know a couple collectors who would like to get this tiny beauty but I think it's a keeper:-)!!!

If it's not from Ohio maybe someone else has some insight into it's origin??

BT
