Dunno my mom picked em out… 300 bills for a palette i know what you mean…there all over @ the house i bought…not lavender, but they are similar…mine are like grey with maybe a bluish/green tint. almost kinda like a slate, but a little harder., but they break the same way, instead of chunking off, they like scale off. ---

Are you putting fish in it? My dad keeps having problems with things eating the fish. I think there was a herring around that wiped them all out. ---
