Well, I finally remembered to take a picture of some of the cabs I finished today before I put them in settings. The lapis has 6x8mm earring cabs and the necklace cab is 18x13mm. the rhodonite are 8x10mm earring cabs and the necklace is just a bit over the 18x13mm size. The lapis is for my granddaughters birthday. She is turning 5 and will be getting her ears pierced. The rhodonite set is for my youngest cousin's daughter (first cousin once removed???) She is 11 and loves pink! the rhodonite is actually darker than the picture. It got washed out.

Great choices for young girls. They are going to love them. My eyes would go wonky to do such small stones. Good for you!

I love that term "go wonky" @rockjunkie ...I'm gonna have to work it into a conversation ...it made me smile !! Good work frane ...love the lapis and always have but Rhodoninite is very cool too. I hope these young ladies will look back years from now and appreciate the time , effort and craftsmanship of such a wonderful gift. thanks for sharing. Jeff A
