Sorry all - I asked Sazza to take the photos down because of photobucket problems (anyone who clicked on the photos could see the entire contents of my photobucket album)
Thought you might like to see my competition prize..it arrived this morning.
It's obsidian and very unusual. On screen it looked quite a flat brown colour, but it's speckled and feels cool against the skin. Not the type of thing I'd normally go for..but I like it!
Of course the danger of competition prizes is that they can introduce you to a new stone - and if you like it, then it could quite easily turn into the beginning of a new collection................... lol
