Tucson Rock Mineral and Fossil Showcase-Tables From Madagascar

We took a little sneak peek at what may be in the Norcross-Madigascar Minerals Tent–we scoped out their warehouse today. Norcross usually has a large display at the Kino Show. Business ID is required to go to the warehouse, but you can see the same stuff at their Kino location.

In particular, I was impressed by their composite coffee tables made from mostly Madigascar Minerals (of course). You buy the table top and can basically support them with any base, although they have bases also. The tops sell for around $6,000 +/-. Not all the stone tables they sell were at the warehouse, so I assume they were moved to their Gem Show Location.

Desert Agate is a Polychrome Agate from Madigascar. It is striking pastels in the pink range. I really liked the look of these.SAJDesert Agateslabs

I really liked a table that looked like it was made from Banded Agate.

Desert Agate slabs were also available and I have to go get a few, as I have regret now that I did not get any. I think this could make nice jewelry.Snob Appeal Jewelry???jasper

We also saw another table made from Madagascar Petrified Wood. An amazing look. The fitting on all these tables of the slabs was amazingly tight, and obviously took substantial time to do.
