It’s called mokume gane.
The process is a bit time consuming, and not very fun! LOL

Well...I guess if I would have just Googled the title, I would have figured that out! LOL

I meant to ask...Is this another "metaphysical" piece were the stone touches the skin?

Very pretty! Mokume Gane is really time consuming, especially if you're making a complicated pattern. Beautiful Chrysoprase in the bracelet.

Robin

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

-- C.S. Lewis

Contacts the wearer sounds so much more pleasant! LOL
No, that wasn’t part of the design this time around.

Yeah...you're right! Stepped into that one! LOL
