Spring Fever Rockhounding for cabbing rough. !!!

It's officially spring and spring fever has hit me. It's time to get out and do some rockhounding. I look forward to this time of the year to get out in the desert and do some rockhounding. It's always exciting to get out and see what has been uncovered from the winters rain and snow. You ever know what you will run across here in the Owyhee's. At Graveyard point you will find stunning plume agate and moss agate. Farther out you will find numerous jaspers like Succor creek, Cripple creek, Owyhee, wildhorse, Rocky Butte and Carrasite jasper. When there is always the mystery agate's and jasper's with no names. Don't forget all the petrified wood in this area. This material is excellent for cutting into cabochons for jewelry. it will not be hard to think up a jewelry design to put these beauty's in. If you would like to look at cabochons cut from this material go to our website www.crdesignsidaho.com We have a large selection of cabochons for sale.

Regency Rose Plume agate
---------------------------------
The snows melting and it's time to start rockhounding. We took a trip out to Graveyard Point in Oregon a few weeks ago to look for some Graveyard Point Plume agate we found some of the best Regency Rose Plume agate I have ever seen. It is just loaded with colors, plumes in Reds, yellows, pinks,, orange and white. It is just beautiful material and cuts killer cabs in this high grade material. There is a picture of the new material shown, but if you would like to see more plume agate and jaspers please visit our website www.crdesignsidaho.com . You will find a large selection of cabochons there. We will be making another trip to the desert soon and will keep you posted.
