I like it. The rock is showy but not overboard. It really goes well with the silver. The silver fab looks great. Do you use a propane torch for your soldering?

I like the proportions. And the stone too!

Star guy thanks for your comment I appreciate it. The stone isn’t flashy but nice went well with the silver. I use a n acetylene torch with medium tip for most of my soldering. Thx for looking.

I did a little silver fabrication a long time ago but never graduated to the oa torch. I really liked it but that hobby kind of fell by the wayside. Your work looks really solid. I like the bail too.

I like it! I esp like the bead detail at the bail. I think the proportions are fine.

Very nice !
I like the twisted wire bezel, it's a nice detail.

The pendant's proportions are very good, especially for an elongated stone. Your bail size is just fine. Your stone with its setting is the hero.
You mentioned that the stone was somewhat "free formed", but in the setting it looks symmetrical and well-cut.

A lot is going on there, but not too much. The three balls at the top is a nice touch. Well-done!

I am sure she will be happy. I like all the "dots".

Extra nice that you did a cut-out on the back to let the light in. I bet she'll love it.  Patty |
