Unfortunately this stone has a fracture and inclusion right at the cutlet.

Nothing I could do, so decided to finish the stone and hope it held together. Here is another view of the pavilion.

I like the color, too bad the light return wasn’t what I was looking for.

It do be like that sometimes. You did a good job, considering!

Even with the unfortunate inclusion, it has a hella cool color!
