Hello, everyone, I don't usually do calibrated cabs but these ones are for the hand-guard of the sword. The small ones are tiger eye, the middle sized are amethyst sage and the larger ones are local agathe, from the location I use to visit each summer with my friends for rockhounding. Thanks for looking, Adrian

Very nice Adrian. You are a great cab cutter and those look perfectly calibrated.

Great job on those round cabs. They can be such a pain. Love that amethyst sage. Jo

Awesome cabs Adrian! I really like the local agate. It's got such a subtle beauty.

Ah yes, the work of a master!! Really, those are excellent. With my limited experience I know it is hard to get them to match. But, I have got to ask, what is that emblem/logo on the stones? And, how do you get that on there?

Fantastic Adrian! Beautifully Crafted! Calibrated cabs are tough...that's why I'll stick to free-forms...no one knows when you mess em' up. Steve

Funny you mentioned they're going on a sword hand guard, because I just saw the new Alice in Wonderland and they had cabs like the pearly ones actually running down the center flat of the blade of Alice's sword. Lovely, Adrian!
