Alabama Paint Agate Rough showing a striking blue ice agate center surrounded by creamy butterscotch with a flow of red. From Paint Rock Valley, Alabama. The shape would make free-cab cutting challenging though possible - personally, I would make a pocket stone out of this piece to preserve the natural composition.
