The Most Spectacular Agate on Earth
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 июн 2018
- 43 lb (19.6 kg) "whole-polished" specimen of Mexican Crazy Lace Agate (from Chihuahua, Mexico). I am not claiming that MCL agate is the best type of agate; rather, this specimen is the largest and most beautiful agate that I have ever encountered.

Just stunning detail. I think that perfectly polished rocks can sometimes look like a piece of coloured plastic. I love that your beautiful piece actually still looks like a rock.
One doesn't have to be a "stone lover" to recognize beauty. Very nice!
So nice to see the most beautiful laced Agate ever. Thank you for preserving it and sharing it to the world. Simply spectacular how mother nature is. Thank you for sharing this amazing find and keep them more coming.
This type of material was the first I ever cut. Super resonate with it. This video had me literally gasping with my hand over my mouth. Absolutely beautiful.
Thank you very much! I love watching!
The famous mudfossil lung turned to breathtaking sculpture! You have the gift my friend. Thank you for sharing! I remember Roger Spurr sharing this a few years back. Very impressive photography!
Spectacular, I’m so happy you didn’t cut it up. The patterns and colors are truly incredible.
We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the opal, donnaboyle669! Indeed, some opals are too spectacular to cut up. Their natural patterns and colors are truly mesmerizing. Don't forget to stay tuned for more opal-related content and a chance to win opals by subscribing and engaging with our channel! 🌟💎🌈
the lines are geometrically fit, and colors are so Homogeneous and harmonious. it is really astonishing.
Very beautiful Agate. I love the way you left the organic shapes evolve in the tumbler, showing it's colorful symphony of crystal. You are an artist, from the heart! Thanks for co-creating these beautiful pieces for all of us to enjoy!
Very nice. And it’s great that you documented your process with photos long before we had RUclips. And now this video of it is awesome too. Thanks for sharing.
Flippin hec!! What a monster. Wow! Wow! Wow! 💣 Awesomely Beautiful💖.... what a treasure. Great find! 👍
What a beauty.
That is a dandy for sure , wow !
About ten years ago I was able to get ten pounds of agate like that but in smaller pieces. I really treasure it and made some nice jewelry with it.
Thanks for sharing !
Wow! Thank You Kindly for sharing this beautiful piece of Mother Earth! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
That is gorgeous and could NOT have been an inexpensive undertaking.
That is incredible, I’m glad you preserved the natural shape.
Excellent job documenting this. You're a good teacher.
I admire your effort to polish this specimen whole. It is truly beautiful.
Wow. Thanks for the close ups. You did a beautiful job.
So glad this video came up as a suggestion to watch. Unbelievably beautiful! Relieved you didn't slice it up.
Beautiful agate! Nice job polishing it.
Wow! That is beautiful! Isn’t it amazing what polishing/Tumbling a stone can reveal. You would not have been able to realize the beauty without doing that.
I have never understood why many people undervalue, in beauty, agate. I have always found it to be quite lovely.
@@PulitzerOpal Oh, Please do! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE opal. But there are sooo many other stones that portray their own beauty and deserve recognition. And a bit of history about the stones, ie the when, where, and how type of thing would be very interesting. (Like "a 40lb chunk of Malachite". WOW!)
Be watching you daily!
Thank you for getting back to me and all your great advice
A really beautiful specimen!
You handled it so carefully through the polishing process. Very clever idea to use the hot glue. I don’t think anyone else could’ve done a better job to achieve the desired results!
I hope it goes on display somewhere where the public can see it.
Why would somebody give this video a thumbs down? I’m just happy he shared the video so I could see the specimen. Rather than thumbs down why not suggest how he could have done better and affording others to learn from this example. Thanks for sharing your efforts sorry you weren’t able to protect all the spheres.
Absolutely freaking incredible!!! Great work showcasing its glory!
I can't get over how pretty this is, LOVE the close ups.
This is absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing this!
Absolutely spectacular!!!! Thank you so much for sharing this breath-taking specimen!!
All I can say is, "Wow, beautiful rock..so colorful." Nice job.
Unbelievable. Thank you for sharing this with us!
I have been looking for hours for a tumbler large enough to tumble boulders. Thank you for including the tumbler details in the video. Absolutely amazing piece.
That is a stunningly beautiful agate. Thank you for sharing!💓💛💓💛
This is so educational too, it shows the botryoidal shapes which create the intricate patterns, fascinating.
Hands down has to be the mother of agates I’ve seen thus far
Absolutely a stunning stone
Here, we call it the MOACL - mother of all crazy lace agate. It is on the kitchen counter (usually)
Thank you for sharing, absolutely beautiful specimen!
Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
No matter how many times I watch this.......the end result is still as beautiful as the first time I watched it. Simply beautiful.
I've been watching for years and this video was just showing up. Such an awesome specimen!
Thank you for sharing. That's a unique and magnificent agate!!!
I could look at that for years.
Thanks very much.
Mexican lace agate is so beautiful. This one is spectacular! You did it justice with the tumbler. Quite the job getting it up to the tumbler machine.
Wow! Stunning specimen. You’re very lucky to have that in your possession.
Not going to lie that was awesome! I would have a drink and some smoke and look at that for hours.
Plenty of those in california.

That is one of the biggest and nicest rocks I have ever seen. Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely gorgeous. Thank you so much for sharing 💕🌹💕
That’s an amazing rock. Mexican crazy lace is one of my favorites. I just finished up a batch of small ones about a month ago. I was really happy with mine, but yours is at a whole other level! Nicely done.
Thank you for sharing. Beautiful!
Agate has always been a favorite stone of mine . Thanks
This is a beautiful stone with all of its colors but I'm partial to Moss agate it has a haunting picture affect in black and white, like a heavy snow n the mountains. There's just something very peaceful about staring into it and seeing the different pictures emerge from the stone. Thank you for showing me this stone.👍🇺🇸👣😋
@@PulitzerOpal thank you I'm looking forward to seeing that buy most of all the Moss agate one's!👍👏👏👏👏👏
WOW! Gorgeous specimen, and also, I've never seen a 40+ pound rock tumbled...
Well, I must say I'm impressed. :)
I have been collecting since I used to have to pick rocks in the field on my grandparents farm when I was around 12, well 30 years later, I still love it, and that is one of the nicest crazy lace I have ever seen. thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing! So gorgeous.
Wow! Of all stones agate is my all time favourite. Thank you for sharing this magnificent stone. Gobsmackingly beautiful. From the land down under.
stunning piece! great job preserving it. I could look at it all day .
Stunning! Thank you for sharing!
What a beautiful piece of agate! I glad you didn't cut it up. Very good video, thank you for sharing!
Very beautiful! My parents are from the u.p. grew up looking for agates and have a couple jars. My favorite thing to do in life I think. Truly treasured. Thanks for your videos! Enjoy them very much.
Amazing!! I wish I had it in my collection. You are very lucky to have it. I love the mix of the red's and yellows.
That is truly amazing my friend, glorious, and more awesome than any man made artwork I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Uuuh, simply fantastic! What a beautiful piece. Only nature us able to create real beauty. Thank you very much for not cutting it up. Thanks a lot for making taping editing uploading and sharing.
Thanks for showing!
I bought a mexican agate skull. I love the swirls of orange, red, yellow, & browns. I looked it up on youtube & found your video. Your agate is very beautifully done. I cannot wait to hold my agate skull & find my swirls to get lost in.
I just found my biggest agate this weekend! I found it walking up from the beach area, we were about to leave... I'm always looking down (of course). I FOUND MY BIGGEST EVER! It is such a beauty. I wish I could share a pic on here... I am so proud. I've been out everyday since and haven't found a thing :( that's how it goes lol. Rock hunting makes me so happy. I had a really bad relationship and had to move out very quickly... ended up accidentally donating my best agate I ever found, along with more than half the stuff I owned. This new one I found is 2x the size of the one I was so sad about losing. Crazy how a Rock can make you feel so cool 😂 I never thought I'd be thinking about a rock I lost 3 years ago... hopefully this new one makes those thoughts go away 😅
Thanks so much, i really enjoy your videos Sir!
Beautiful! Crazy lace agate is underrated, especially the large and superbly colored and patterned specimens such as this one. So glad you did not cut it up. I have a 10+ pound moss agate from WI that Scott Wolter recommended I leave unpolished and uncut. Great advice. Lube it occasionally with mineral oil and it really lights up the patterns.
absolutely beautiful... I never seen such a piece!
Gorgeous piece!! 😍 you are a very lucky man to own it! Crazy lace is my favorite so I’ve been drooling over this one! 😬😜
Youve done an amazing job
What a stunning stone.
Opals are my favorite along with party sapphires. Thanks for the great video.
Most beautiful I've ever seen. Amazing. Thanks much.
Holy cow! That is spectacular! I would definitely sit and gaze at every square centimeter of a treasure like that. I'd love to add a small piece of a stone like that to my little collection.
Can you eat it?
Agate is my favorite. This is amazing
Wow! Love this! You’re right, this is stunning!
Absolutely magnificent piece of mother earth sir! Love that you tumbled it for the overall polish. Your idea of using hotmelt glue over the botryoidal agate formations was brilliant and appears to have provided enough cover during the first couple of stages to keep them virtually intact. I like to tumble the broken pieces of botryoidal formed agate thunderegg geodes, really end up with amazing shapes like your giant beautiful Mexican crazy lace agate joy! Thanks for sharing~
I certainly enjoyed seeing it. thank you for sharing.
ESPECTACULAR!!!! Congratulations. Anna from Argentina
After watching a few of your videos I've gained a fascination for the work you do. Really beautiful materials.
@@PulitzerOpal That's a big polisher for a hobbyist. 😁
So,beautiful!thank you!
thnx for posting the video. indeed an excellent sample of agate you have there. you did a very good job with it. it turned out great. even covering some of the round spots with the glue was a very good idea..thnx again and cheers from Mexico...
That's absolutely gorgeous thanks for sharing
Wow... That is freaking outstanding. Gorgeous
Beautiful! I love Rocks... Thanks for sharing this video.
