Somebody asked me about plagioklase? called finnish spectrolite. We have it a lot in Ylamaa, eastern part of Finland. Last summer we made a small fishing trip and my son got a big fish. I didnīt get any, so I had to make one Smiley.

Wow, that spectrolite is some beautiful stuff.  Next time I go to Ylamaa, I'll have to bring you along.  Great work on that "fish"!  Do you have a larger photograph of it?

I've worked a couple of pieces of the Finnish Spectrolite
and love it. Very different colors from the Canada/New England
Labradorite. I would love to work out a trade if you can think
of anything from "over here" you might be interested in.
I have never shipped overseas, so I don't have any idea
what the rates are? I'll have to check on that.

You did a great job on your "finished Finnish fish". (Sorry Roll Eyes)
