Very nice. Great looking material, and really good work too.That can be really difficult, making matching sets. My only experience so far is making earrings, and, it is tricky!

Jim, I thought the Wonderstone rectangles (last pic) are pet wood.

Those are great Jim. I've only done matching pairs twice for earrings. For those I glued the blanks together then shaped and domed them. Worked out well. Your shapes all look identical. I'm liking the second one. Is that a picture jasper?

You did a very nice job of matching both pattern, and shape in the whole batch. This should provide some inspiration for others to do the same. Woody

Very nice! I've never tried to cut pairs before. You did a good job matching the stones in shape and pattern.

Thought second stone is Owee (not sure on spelling) but could be mistaken. Wonderstone material was soft for being pet wood.
