Hello everyone, I cabbed a piece of Lapis that I recently purchased. Here it is, groove wrapped: Thank you for the polishing advices. It's a bit soft but not much, just enough to make its working enjoyable and still to take a good polish. Not the liquid polish of Bruneau or Bloodstone for example, but still good. Thanks for looking, Adrian

That turned out great!! Lapis is some beautiful stuff, I'm looking for a good chunk of it on Ebay.

That's a very pretty piece you made, Adrian! Love the lapis - blue always gets my attention - and you did an outstanding job of both the cabbing and the groovy wrapping.

Really like the lapis and or course great job on the wrap. I keep saying I'm going to try one of those but just never seem to. I think for now I will just leave the wraps up to you.

Here's a picture of something to make you lapis lovers drool. I bought this last year but haven't got around to cutting it. Sometimes it's nice just to look at 'em... Pictured dry: Pictured wet:
