I was going to tell you which is my favorite, but I can't. I couldn't pick out one over the other if my life depended on it. They are all spectacular. Make my fingers itch to wrap them. Great job!  Jo |

Nice cabs. I like the stones and the shapes. I see why they are your personal favs.

Thanks All, Ya, if i had to say, it would problly be the second cab, as it very translucent, and the Dendrites are the longest i ever seen. And it a hugh piece, the biggest out of all 5. But i couldnt tell you for the life of me were it came from.
The second one is Carrisite, though i probley spelled it wrong, i do like the black in it. Gives off nice contrast to the pinks and cream colors.
And for those who like inclusions, Blue Mt jasper can have some wild looking inclusions, and is the only gem jasper i have seen with true plumes in it.

I like them all, but I really like the third one, it looks kind of Japanese.

All hand done, i sometimes use a vib tumbler for small batch cabs. AS i do production work for a few artisans and rock vendors. BUt i perfer most everything to be all hand worked from start to finish. Thanks for asking!
