    12 o’clock – glass
    1 o’clock – aventurine
    butterfly – ceramic
    5 o’clock – dyed magnesite
    6 o’clock – coral
    This was fun!

    Good guesses! It’ll be fun to see what everyone thinks these might be. I took another photo of them just now — might add it to the post if it came out OK 🙂
