Love them and would like to see yours.
I found this one hundreds of miles south of the closest deposit of this material.

I have not found a pretty Celt in my life. I have crude ones.

I'm not sure about the next piece. I do think it was hafted as a Celt would be.

I'll trade you guys!!! All of mine for one pretty one! That's the deal of a life time!!! Lol! All of mine could be dirt working tools, rather than tree felling tools.
 

Here's a few of mine. This isn't all of them. Just the ones I could find pictures of.

Although it has too much damage to the bit, this is one of my faves. It's a true miniature at 1 1/2 inches. I think it's serpentine and I love the color. Now for the weird part. When I found it, it had a single very dark green stripe on the side shown. So dark green it was almost black. The thickest stripe shown, but much darker with no other green areas. I put it in a frame this side down. A few weeks later, I took it out, flipped it over and the whole side was full of bright green! This side was face up in the sun when found. Apparently, out of light, all the color showed up that was not there when I found it!? Huh? Well, it was so suddenly pretty, I left it in the frame this side up. but, after a few days in light, the celt turned black again and the stripe went back to darkest evergreen! So now I display it pretty side down! As seen in last photo. My haunted celt!

Nice Guys!
Killer piece there Tom!
That Florida stuff just brings goose bumps to me.
 

Here's mine all found here on the coast by me or dad..................some aren't what you would think of as a celt maybe but feel like they served a purpose along the same lines sorta.
Take Care,
Pete,:hello:
