You have really been hitting it. Beautiful work. Thanks, Fixing to go on the road for a few weeks and been cleaning some of the studio. Mostly hauled rocks to the garage that is already full. Then move stuff from one side to the other then back again. Pounding out a few piece keeps me sane. I can actually walk through the shop now.

Nice work. Always a nice feeling to clean up the clutter... I usually just step over it LOL I really like that blue lace. Looks fantastic with the silver.

Busy! I love them all! But, I really, really like the zoisite. I have never seen any in a ring. Looks great!

After I polished the zoisite on the buffer I noticed it dulled the stone and there was some deep scraches in it. I checked the stone before I decided to make the ring out of it, it was about a 6.5 mohs. I am not sure where the scratches came from but I went back and polished the top on the diamond wheels. I am worried now it won't hold up.

I have sprained my ankle twice in the last two years stepping over clutter. I try to leave a path now. I have always like the blue lace but this piece was pretty sweet.
