Greetings, Here is a Maori chief with Moko who is 2.25 inches high by 1.50 Inches wide. This is from Synthetic jade from timid tiki. Judge for yourself. I Love carving this stone and it is very bright translucent. Although looking very Mottled when all lit up?

This fellow has about 10 hours in rough -out and is from the lighter of the two batches you sent me Timid. It Definitely carves nicely. it will be interesting to see how it takes the moko.

Enjoy
