Wow! Beautiful flower, I love it. The Bruneau is awesome, what's behind it? The Saddle Mtn. is really cool it looks like a tree line reflected in water.

Looks like you find some pretty fine material and know how to work it. Very nice cabs.

That flower is a beauty! Did you also makethe silver work? My favorite amongst the cabs is the Bruneau, but the saddle Mountain dendritic pet wood is also gorgeous.

Fishenman: The piece behind the Bruneau is some tube or lace agate I collected from central Oregon.
Adrian: No I did not do the silver work, I bought the setting. I wish I could do decent silver work but haven't decided to learn yet.
Thanks for all the comments. chasfire

What a great batch, chasfire! My fave is the bruneau, although the dendritic wood is a close second.

Woooo. Very nice. I like the carnelian best. Heck, since they're from Washington, I like them all. I'm a Pacific Northwest kinda guy though I live in West Texas. Go Seahawks!
