a friend of mine made these. Highest quality blue agate dino bone. This first one is mine. Im not a ring wearer never been but I like blue the most and its not real flashy like other colorful dino rings Ive seen. The quality of these overall are high. I haven't seen another jewelry maker that specializes in high quality dino bone like Mark. He needs new wheels and other maintenance of equipment so I figure I donate some money to him and get this killer ring in return. this third one has pyrite in it. Pretty cool. The light blue dino bone is usually calcite and not agate like this.

don't want to sound like a salesmen but here it goes. These blue bone rings are $300. The yellow bone ring I have no ideal. Ill bet the guy wants way more if it is for sale. I don't know him. My buddy Mark has some other colored dino rings in this range also. Hand makes the ring part and the inlay. I guarantee you wont find anything near as nice for this price range. Trust me Ive researched my azz off when it comes to agatized dino bone.

yep the blues are Mark Anderson. I forget the guys name that did the yellow ring. Hes friends with Mark. That's how he got that killer yellow dino bone for the ring.

I really enjoy your posts, esp the bones you post! I have a new appreciation for gem bone since I started cabbing. Sometimes you don't really know what you have until you're finished.
Those rings and the gem bones are killer!

yeah he lowered the price. I actually didn't even see his website price. Everything is on facebook. That's where the price is updated. Also I noticed on the website there are some that I know are sold already. Facebook is easier and faster to update I guess. You catch him when he needs new equipment is when it seems the price gets lowered. He said he needs like over 2,000 for equipment expenses right now.

The gold one I like is listed at $3,500. That's a bit much. I appreciate the quality and craftsmanship but I'll make my own.
