Won't guess, but that's awesome. Looks like some gnarly thorn bushes or something.
Very neat wrap Sands.

Not sure how much to guess what you got for it. I suppose it depends on if yer smilin' because you sold it, or laughing because you sold it for an outrageous amount. So which is it?
It is an amazing wrapped stone so I imagine you got a price of equal amazement. At least you got a happy face out of it. Don't know how much a happy face costs nowadays.....

I know how much he got for it. I am not going to spoil the fun however.
Guess what else is going to be a real suprise. There is a vendor there, who, is selling tumbled stones. Nothing special, just commercial tumble. He is getting 1.00$ each for a single stone! He has been doing it all day, and yesterday. Yesterday, he sold 300 stones in an 8hr period.
Imagine, 1.00$ a stone for a tumble.

I've seen alot of really nice wire wraps, but that one is unique. That quality (and lesser) I've seen go for around $80 or more, and that price would be a steal for that one!

Hey Sands, that is a perfect combination of stone and wire, I will have a wild guess at what you got for it. I will give it a low price , being mindful that I think it is woth more!!
$45 USA
Congrats on the sale. It must have been a buzz.
So far , Jeannine has sold 1 piece of wirewrap and 3 sets of earrings and a bundle of my polished pebbels haha.

That is just a great piece of work.
I think the stone is phenominal, what is it and where did you get it?
The wrapping gets better with each piece you are doing.
And to get a good price like that is really fulfilling.
Way to go John!!
