#Chatoyancy

Total win from the street fair on Avenue of the Americas last weekend. #Selenite #crystals grow so straight that when polished they exhibit strong #chatoyancy. It would have been easy to drop a couple hundred at this place, they had so many cool #carvings & #jewelry, so choosing just this was a #happy #chore.

Selfie of a man with long white hair and a rainbow tie-dye shirt, wearing a beautiful selenite necklace from the street fair. Its crystals grow so straight that when polished, selenite has strong chatoyancy.

Today at it's the eye green vs one of the sturdiest . Some zircons I heard are older than my humans. Zircon can also & .
That's a lot of arguments🐾
I'm not telling what's my favourite

Todays duel is vs . I voted for both earlier. Very difficult... I am afraid I must vote for Zircon the sturdy being impawtent in and showing the 's eye effect.

I was window-shopping on Zillow (as you do) and found a homesteading-in-progress lot.

Y'all.

This is their *temporary bathroom structure*!

Look at the figure in these full-width slabs they're using as shingle walls! It's *insane*!

It's a wooded lot, so they're probably saving money by using materials on hand, which is even funnier.

A small bathroom building. The walls are full-width slabs, hung like shingles to keep water draining outward.The interior of the bathroom reveals that the full back wall is highly-figured wood, and is gorgeousThe top two boards on this wall are plain, highlighting just how figured the wood is on the lower two boards.

Today during indoor I found a called in the shelf! Pawsome! It's a mineral and got its name, no need to say it😹, because it shows -the -eye effect, caused by the fibrous mineral growth, when properly cut.

It could trend. In an alternate universe probably.

The camera just doesn’t capture the beauty of the cherry wood on this instrument; the grain has a shimmering depth that reminds me of tiger’s eye agate.

It turns out it’s not just my imagination; I looked it up, and learned a new word: chatoyancy.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chatoyan

Some woods do actually share the same optical reflectance effect seen in tiger’s eye; cherry is one, and it’s gorgeous.
