The first batch all look nice, Jonje. I like #5 best, followed by #4. Do you have an id on them?

Great batch of cabs, especially the first group. I'm kinda undecided on the metallic ones as I'm not crazy about enhanced stones. I can see where they'd be very popular as wrapped pendants though....Mel

1. Breciated Jasper 2. Tiffany stone 3. Eudialyte 4. Artist Stone 5. Pietersite
The only reason I got the metallic coated stones is due to the fact that the it makes the druzy sparkle like crazy.

Love the tiffany stone. I've never seen or heard of it before. Very pretty.
FYI : Tiffany Stone is a type of fluorite and opal from what I understand.

You really chose uniqe stones from there, Jeremy! As for the metal coated, I'm for leaving the stone as natural as possible, a polish is more than enough to outline what Mother Nature can create.

The first and third are very nice. The metal coated look very cool. I bet they will look very nice wrapped.

cool cabs. I have seen the enhanced stone done up in pendants; they look nice and seem to sell pretty well.

I love all the natural cabs, not so hot on the metallic ones, but that's just my taste. When I first got into woodturning I thought it was a sin to color the wood, now I do it quite often so I may grow to like those.
