    I have another bottle also made out of this stone, which also goes by the name Volcanic Puddingstone, but the markings on this one appealed to me more.

    This one is also hollowed more, so I would call this one well hollowed.

    I am particularly fond of this type of stone! The green, blue, and sometimes pink inclusions against the black ground are just lovely.

    This one measures 6.4cm without the top. The top appears to be a dark carnelian stone.
