Sheep Bridge Agate Slab 496

Sheep Bridge Agate is found in Yavapai County, Arizona. It is so named for the bridge that was built in the 1920’s to move sheep herds over the Verde/Horseshoe River. This sagenitic agate displays dense purple/lavender rutile stands in a showy white acicular agate.  The color saturation in this slab is great and will make wonderful finished pieces.
