I bought this piece of Angel White Veracite from Andy Brown of Cerrillos, New Mexico. He dug it at his family's mine & then polished it. I have made angel pendants for several years & when I learned the name of the stone, I had to use this one to form the skirt of the angel. I textured the wings and the back by pressing lace into the silver sheet with my rolling mill, before constructing the pendant.
