Here ya go Tony, These are three more new Koroit's from the stuff I picked up from the man. This is my first doublet with Opal. It's on an Iron stone backing. It was not the biggest of opal areas but it was thin and I wanted to give a doublet a try. A Close up This one looks like it runs on batteries in person. Opps almost forgot this one Hope ya like them.

I think they are all astonishingly beautiful. I really envy your silversmithing talents - you really know how to showcase a gorgeous cab!

Wow! I don't know what impresses me more...the stones and the silver work, or the fact you can work these ujp so fast. It would take me this long just to get the silver polished Very nice. That next to last one does really sing!! T

Exquisite work, as always! My favorite is the 2nd to last, but hard to pick a favorite among these beauties.

Do you guys have the secret BO source or what??? LOL! Amber I have been sworn to keep my mouth shut. Actually I think Tony is in the know. It's no real secret. Just alot of cutting to find the good ones. I'm working on 6 more that will be done tomorrow.

That next to last one does really sing!! T If you talk to my other half she would just say it is because of an opal obsession and a un-ablity to put down the dop stick. I just uncovered a smaller piece that matches that second to last one tonight. It will make a perfect matching ring stone.

You know, I have looked at this one so many times, I thought I had commented on it before! I just love the 2nd/3rd one because it looks like a comical happy face just set so beautifully in the silver! Fran
