Anyone seen one of these?

I found this in a storage unit I bought. Its one piece of stone and is 3/4 of an inch thick, 3 foot long and 16 Inchs wide. The horses are etched into the stone. I thought it was sand blasted but I cant feel any change in texture. Anyone seen one of these or know who made them?

I'll give you $100 for it.

It is probably laser etched soapstone.

Very cool regardless.

Its laser etched. Any photo can be etched with the right laser software combo. I have a laser at work that we do engraving/cutting with all the time. Glass, some stone, wood, leather, pretty much anything that I can get a color change on will work for pictures.

Its tough to say what kind of stone it is from the pic. Black marble or black granite turns out a nice contrast when lazed.
We have had the laser for a few years now, and its still fun to watch and play with. We have engraved things from pocket knives to 4'x8' glass panels.

Pretty cool. I've seen them up in Jackson Hole.

Let the bidding begin! Highest gets it!

I suspect it weighs in around 50#, so shipping it to my house would be unrealistic and it might not arrive intact.

Either way, it is a cool piece of work and would make a great table top.....or?
