That is really elegant. I love the flow of the wires. I had never heard of lithium as cabbing material, just a chemical for pharmacological purposes. Is there a trade name that it is known by?

I guess that officially it's called lithium quartz. guess the lithium in the quartz creates the purple color. this cab reminds me of a cloudy summer night. kind of see the sparkles thru the clouds. o

Lepidolite is the primary ore of litium. Quartz content varies. Some friends have a lepidolite mine with a high quartz content that works up great for spheres, cabs, etc.
