Hi Barbara

Are these similar - I have them listed as Zebra Agate but they are also known as Chinese painting stone, unfortunately I only have them as rounds.

If not good luck with your search

Hi Karen - They certainly look like the stones described to me. I will have another look under the name you use for them. Many thanks for your help.
Barbara Thank you

Hope this helps your search
