And I don't even wear gold, I just think that's what that stone would look best wrapped in. Good luck, beautiful cab! cookie

How about silver, but then oxidize it. I think black would look pretty good.

i agree with the gold. i don't know how to do what toad suggested but that would look good. i saw someone doing it in the silver I class but i was too busy with my own project to check out what they did. but i bet doc knows.

With that piece, I would also do gold. With any earth tones, or the classic blue and gold, I use exclusively gold.
With southwestern, I integrate silver, sometimes with gold.
Looking good.

Gold for a woman though, not to be sexist, but the antiqued look is more a man look to me.
