I usually do light tent pics or outside under my tree, today I shot them as I finished them. An agate- the name of which I forgot. Can anyone help with ID? The color is more like a cross between wax beans and butterscotch. Just showing off a polish, since I so rarely show any. Very sweet roses in Mary Ellen jasper. It's actually a little more red. I'm using an led lightbulb, not color correct like my others. Old crazy lace- love this one! So much going on. Turkish stick agate- a little blurry, sorry. Beautiful crayola jasper Unusual amethyst sage. I had one slab of this and it was very, very popular. This big oval of Imperial jasper took almost twice as long to do as all the others. It started out real thick, it still is, but a lot had to come off. Looks much better in person. Looks like Thurs might be warm again. I really need some days to do preforming, but it's still a bit too cold. The water is like ice. Thanks for looking.

Fantastic shine! They are all great and I'll pick the crayola jasper as my favorite.
Peace,

Beautiful! Is the first one condor agate? Could be. I have a hard time deciding between Condor and Piranha. I get them mixed up.

Those are some really cool rocks made into great cabs. I like the Crayola the best too.

Thanks y'all! I like the crayola, too, but I'm real partial to the material. That cab started out as a large double inside curve pear. It broke when preforming, so I freeformed it. I like the shape with the gentle inside curve. I am finally really comfortable with those curves. Now to finally do a heart....

Great polish on awesome material Tela. The Crayoloa is a stunner! I am pretty sure Tommy's Condor ID on your unknown is correct.
