Rough Agate or Chalcedony Specimen

The item is an unpolished, rough mineral specimen held in a hand. It appears to be a type of agate or chalcedony due to its translucent and waxy appearance in certain areas. The dominant color is a milky white with areas of light gray and some brownish-orange iron staining or inclusions scattered throughout. There are notable botryoidal (grape-like or bubbly) formations on the surface, particularly visible in the lighter, clearer sections. The surface is irregular and textured, consistent with a natural, unworked stone. There do not appear to be any visible cracks, chips, or signs of repair. There are no discernible manufacturer's marks, signatures, or stamps. The rough, raw nature of the specimen suggests it is likely a recent find or collected piece, rather than a historically significant artifact. The quality appears to be natural, unenhanced stone with typical inclusions and formations for its type. The irregular shape suggests it is a piece of a larger formation.
