Pink chalcedony nodules, sometimes called "chalcedony desert roses," have been discovered across the southwest. They were prolific from this locale back in the 1990s, but today are much harder to come by—at least with any size or quality. 

Pink chalcedony often forms shapes like a nest, cup, or knobby "ear" with raised curved rims of snaking banding. 'Agate' refers to chalcedony with banded color, whereas this chalcedony has banded structure. It has a dynamic, fluid appearance similar to its relative hyalite, as if someone piped icing on a cake when it was still warm so it's starting to melt down the sides.

This specimen is good-sized, with two large 'clamshells' of faint pink chalcedony with concentric banding, back-to-back and forming a raised edge. What this specimen lacks in color, it makes up for in form, with undulating thick edges and knobby botryoidal forms. Some opaque whitish layers form agate banding of white and translucent chalcedony, most apparent in the middle of the concentric banding. 

UV reactivity this material has an excellent UV reaction, most pieces glowing a strong green under 365nm UV light. This piece has a very good UV reaction, with the main chalcedony formations glowing a strong green. There is also a vein of chalcedony through the matrix that has an even more vivid reactionNo phosphorescence detected.

Perfect size, high quality
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Black (Metal Silvered)
I had a previous catch all tray that I bought on amazon, it used buttons on the 4 corners to turn a flat cardboard into a tray. Over time, the catch all tray got filled up, not just with a wallet, keys and eyeglasses but eventually business cards and other knick knacks. With all the items inside the tray, sometimes the buttons would start to pop out. It wasn't awful, more of an annoyance. But it was time for me to find a more durable tray. I looked on amazon and added 6 different trays that had "potential" into my shopping cart. Then I carefully evaluated each one and deleted them out of my cart until there was only one left. Some had multiple compartments. Some were larger than this one. I felt the ones with compartments would limit my ability to put the things I want in there. Also, I didn't want it so big that it took up too much desk space. Ultimately, I felt this was the perfect size. I'm extremely happy with it, the quality is really nice and it looks and feels durable. No more loose buttons and spilled knick knacks.

Keeps clutter away
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Black (Metal Silvered)
This works great to corral all my notes I write on post its or small notes. Keeping them hidden from the desk top b/c or the depth but still visible to me. Much better than keeping on the plotter. Looks great in quality .

Attractive, Simple, And Well-Made
Size: 7.7" x 7.7" x 1.7", Color: Orange (Metal Glided)
I use this as a "catchall". A place to stash things like my wallet and keys when I enter the door, so that I don't use them (I had been prone to that!). It serves it's purpose well. It's both sturdy and attractive, and a good size for a "catchall". Recommended for those like me who need such things.
