Hello everyone! I made today a set from an agatized coral slab. I got this slab looong time ago from deb. Thank you Daniel! Great material, solid and very good to polish. This is the first time when I wrapped the ear rings as they can swing. This was Ina's wish. Her wish, my demand I also polished the back of the ear-rings and of the pendant. Here's the pendant: Thank you for looking, Adrian

What does the reflection say in the last picture - can't make it out (but a testament to your great shine)

You did the slabs proud.
I have some more pastel-colorful coral now. Next time we trade, I will put in another piece.

What does the reflection say in the last picture - can't make it out (but a testament to your great shine) Toad, here's the same picture vertically flipped such as it shows the writing: PHILIPS 100W SOFTONE soft white 230 V Daniel, this sounds great. But it's me for the moment who has to send you a box and here's a good occasion to tell you I didn't forget about it Mary Ann, this is exactly what Ina told me too. Adrian
