!!!! Chalice !!!!

roryb24 · Apr 7, 2013

Ok so i got this chalice from a LFS it was almost completely dead and receding when i got it.
ive had it for about 5 months i dipped it when i got and have been watching it closely.
It finally after about 3 months started to look pretty good again.
When i got it it was blood red and shriveled up showing alot of skeleton now it is growing and has turned a Metalic orange and it showing some green streaks and the eyes have a mixture of yellow and orange as well as it has some blueish spots.
it doesnt have a colored rim tho but oh well.
All these other colors just started showing up i have a feeling that it hasnt even really started showing its true colors yet.

How long does it take for a chalice to color back up after being sick/close to death?

let me know any tips or tricks to coloring it up.

anything you wanna know just ask or any info you think i might need let me know thanks guys.
i think i got a real steal if this chalice colors up like its looking.

sorry about the pictures they were taken with my iphone under my 3x AI sol blues

Thats hot!!! Great coloring on it! If I were you id just leave it where ever you have it now since you have brought it back from the dead. If you want to you could try placing it at different levels of light to see if it brings out more or takes away color. I think it looks awesome already though!

Thanks guys.
I'm pretty impressed so far.
It went from dull red to this.
Like I said tho the color has only started comming back in the last month or so.
