Hohenstein Ernstthal, Saxony

Another of the more common German locations on the market and the kinship with the St Egidiens is obvious, especially in the larger stones. However, they have a softer, more delicate quality that is their own. Another characteristic is really vivid red brecciation fragments. Like the St Egidiens, there seems to be a tendency for the larger stones to elongate.
