- Large, with a white crazed surface
A large, lumpy grey piece of ambergris on a kitchen table, with avocados, red onions and a basket behind it. A thin white crust covers most of the surface and has cracked into a fine crazed network, like dried mud, showing grey and darker patches underneath. The piece rises to a rounded peak on one side and spreads wide at the base.

I post new pieces, field trips and identification tips on Instagram.
Most of what washes up is driftwood and stone. I post the pieces that aren't, and how I tell them apart.
