Lithophysae from the "Massif de L'Esterel", France.
I like these thundereggs for their color and nice pattern, called the "Uruquay banding". The "Uruquay banding" is a horizontal banding in an agate and is named after Uruquay, a country in South America where a lot of these types were found. This is a type of pattern that occurs in all kinds of agates and aren't typical for these agates.
These thundereggs are found in the southern part of France near Cannes.
