These Septarian nodules were
found at a local rock shop lol
A deal was struck with a rock
hammer and these pretties
came home with me.
Ancient mud balls formed
around 50 to 70 million years ago.
The cracks fill in with calcite over time.
More info about concretions.
Geometry patterns abound
in and around.
Sun faces and eyes, the sizes vary.
Could even use them as a
compass or clock.
Outer backsides are rather plain,
I might of passed many of these by.
Check out the rock tags below to
find other awesome rock folks!

You have a nice little collection. The two smaller ones in the middle of the top picture look like googly eyes with eyelashes.

Thank you and you are most welcome @nat-expressions!
Be cool to have one the size of a small table top, could
almost play chess on it lol
So many things we must be passing by, artifacts and
odd things we've never seen before. I like the looks
of the petrified coral rocks you have over your way! :-)

One of those the size of a small table would be amazing! Even slices used to make a table top would be beautiful!!

Those are some sweet designs. I have always strayed away from buying stones at a store but this past spring I stopped in a few local antique shops and they had quite an array of rocks. I felt they were too expensive for me though. I'd rather find them and be the seller!

Thank you @rockhounds!
Bought, given and found all good for rockhounds lol
Some are just crazy costly, he had some carved Alaskan
jade, a large bear perhaps basketball size for around
seven thousand dollars or more. Those meteorites
take the cake tho!! Yeow on the prices of those!
Sure like to trip over one! :-)
