Robert just happened to bring me two that matched, so I tried it. The weight is surprisingly light. Might have to practice this a bit, as I find matching rocks.

I am just too much of a coward to try the wire wrapping. I do pretty much every type of jewelry EXCEPT that.

I think it's harder to wrap something small like the earring stones. Adrian

I'm impressed.

I also know the knuckle-ache involved with earrings. They look great but are a pain to make. Those came out real nice. Is that Sodalite? Steve
