I am in the swamp tour business south west of New Orleans.
Lost all my lapidary stuff in a divorce 25 yrs ago.
All I have left is some fire agate rough and some opal.
I have very little to offer but I will try to get you something that is
native to the area.
I won't tell you what it is but i will let you guess after you see

If you've been to many southern craft shows you may recognize them.
