Condor Agate ~ Dragon Eyes

 
While first getting into condor agate 9 years ago. I noticed a good amount of the material came in rough form as a seam or vien nodule. And not the typical round geode form. These produced fun cabochons, but after several cutters i tried splitting down the center to get a more collectable pattern. I noticed these dragon eyes would often be produced. I really enjoyed them this way and sold several sets over the years. AS to a agate collector, this fuzzy, fadding line pattern is not highly collectable for agates. As why they were easier to get in rough form. But i really enjoyed them so i thought i would sahre a set a still have.
