Mystery Broken Thunderegg – Botryoidal Center with Plume-Like Structure – Old Stock Ochoco Collection
This mystery old stock broken thunderegg shows what was once a botryoidal center with plume-like structures. Exact bed is uncertain, but it came from a collection containing many old stock Ochoco thunderegg beds. A neat trimmer that could yield designer cabochons with a bubble polish showing the interior pattern and the botryoidal as a natural top.
