Morganite tumbled

The rare rhodonite is of a bright pink color with black/dark grey spots and stripes when tumbled. Small deposits are found worldwide, including in Sweden, Brazil, Madagascar, and England. It is often used for carving, cabochons, and beads. The very rare transparent rhodonite crystals are made into multi-faceted gemstones.

Zebra Marble tumbled has unique black (sometimes red/brown) and white banding throughout, resembling the stripes of a tiger or zebra.

As its name implies, lake Superior Agate is a famous Agate found exclusively on the shores of Lake Superior (Canada and USA). This banded Agate is prized by collectors for its vivid colors in alternating shades of red, brown, white, beige, and green. It takes a fine polish. Lake Superior Agate is the state gemstone of Minnesota.

Chalk is a soft, white, porous, sedimentary carbonate rock, a form of limestone composed of the mineral calcite and originally formed deep under the sea by the compression of sub-microscopic plankton which had fallen to the sea floor. Chalk is common throughout Western Europe, where deposits underlie parts of France, and steep cliffs are often seen where they meet the sea in places such as the Dover cliffs on the Kent coast of the English Channel. Chalk is mined for use in industry, such as for quicklime, bricks and builder's putty, and in agriculture, for raising pH in soils with high acidity. It is also used for "blackboard chalk" for writing and drawing on various types of surfaces, although these can also be manufactured from other carbonate-based minerals, or gypsum.

The popularity of the pink Aventurine tumbled comes from its glittering effect and attractive pink color, as well as from its scarcity. This beautiful tumbled stone is produced from the material found in Canada, Tibet, China, Russia, Brazil, Australia, South Africa, Tanzania, and India. It is regularly tumbled and cut into beads.
