Hi everyone, I cut a few new cabs from the brenda stuff we brought home a few weeks ago. Not real sure what a couple of them are but they sure are colorful. If anyone knows what type of agate they are, please tell me. Thanks.        And, I had to cut one from some chrysocolla. Thanks for looking. |

Thanks for all the compliments, I have a couple of slabs left that are exactly like the one I cut #5/6 from if anybody wants one, just let me know because I'd be happy to share. The slabs are actually big enough to get 2 or 3 cabs out of each one. Thanks for looking.

I like them all Jamie, Rich reds with good contrast in patterns. I agree with mel, PLumes mostly, but sagenite in the 3 one. I like too how you used the shape in the 4th one, making it more vertical with a nice seperaton between the red and the black. Thanks for posting.

Wow!!! Very nice Jamie. Those are some fantastic cabs. I have to say #1 is my fav, with #3 coming in close behind. I like the "ghost agate" area in #3. Well cut stones.

Jamie does a great job shaping them. I have a pile of her cabs in the tumbler now, the stones will be turning in a day or two.

Jamie,
Beautiful work, ya got good hands kiddo. I bet there's a good size crowd lined up wanting to get their hands on these next. Got your box several days ago. I tried calling , but you guys must be on walkabout again. I intend to share the goodies you sent with a jewelry maker in Scotland . It sounds like there is very rarely any American material available there for any price. I picked out some of the really choice pieces you sent mom and I ,and ,combined with some of the
pieces I intend to add in, we should keep his creative juices flowing until late next summer.
Again , beautiful cab's thanks for sharing !!!!!
