... well it has been sometime since I even bother charging my barrels let alone having something to post, so yesterday, I eventually opened up the polishing barrel and these are what popped out of it. I sorted them into their individual types and here are some of the seperated stones. Dalmation Jasper Red Jasper Botswana Agate A close up of three of the Bots ... ... and I like to think I have saved the best till last, and these should be of interest to a lovely little lady on this here board. These took about 8 months to get to this stage, and the ones the little lady have are from the exact same batch (with no cherry picking done.) Carnelian Thanks for looking.

You know Rogue, Today has been a rough day but your tumbles were like a tranquil breath of fresh air! I can't tell what is better in the batch, they are all so fantastic! I like your button looking bots in the first pic and of course, the red jasper and carnelians are just beautiful but then, they all are! Fran

Oh oh oh!!!! I missed this post Rogue.......Ive been a little slack on the board as of late. Those carnelians are absolutely gorgeous. Oranges and yellows are my favorite colors.....so warm and happy! I havent gotten a chance to work the carnelian you gave me but its nice to see what my end results could possibly be.
Thanks so much for sharing,
Shan
