Pink Lace Slabs
Pink Lace is a beautiful material that comes from Durango, Mexico. The red to pink areas tend to be hard like agate and the lighter areas are softer. This can present a challenge when cutting cabochons. However, Pink Lace cuts such pretty stones, the extra work is worth the effort.
Pink Lace cuts with silicon carbide or diamond wheels and polishes with tin and cerium oxide or diamond. It is usually
formed in nodules and has transparent, or translucent portions. As with
all of the other species in the quartz family, Pink Lace takes a high polish with
cerium oxide.
