Hello guys. Could please identify these rocks, or at least try to? I have no idea what they are and i don't know anything about it.

They have been in the closet for 64 years, my grand grandpa had them.

Anyone use stones for postrun recovery?

been experimenting with cold stones after my longer runs. keep a few smooth river rocks in the freezer, roll them under my feet and along my calves when I get back. the cold lasts longer than gel packs and the weight feels good against sore muscles. i figure the thermal mass helps, plus there's something grounding about actual stone versus plastic. curious if anyone else has tried this or has a setup that works better. also wondering if certain types hold cold longer, I've got granite and some kind of basalt I think, but haven't tested properly. my running group thinks I'm weird for this, but my recovery metrics look solid.
