My Mom and Dad came out to Arizona from Maryland to visit my wife and I, My mom was looking over my slabs and ask if I could make something for her out of a slab of Malachite, so I made her this.

Totally gorgeous! Some day, maybe I'll find someone giving lessons on silversmithing - I love the look you gave this one - very clean, and shows off the malachite beautifully.

Beautiful! Figures huh? Mom WOULD choose a very expensive slab LOL It never fails, when my mom comes to visit she points out which slabs/rough she would like for jewelry. She has zero interest in rocks but doesnt hesitate to hint which ones would look good in a pendant/bracelet for HER. Shan

Clint!!! Now I feel very special that I have one too!!! That is a beauty! I bet she loved it like I love mine!!! It is worn often now that the Eagles are back playing, matches all my Eagles stuff! LOL
FYI Peeps!
Clint does beautiful work both with his cabs and silver work, it was a pleasure meeting him in AZ, and he is just as nice as his work!!!!

Beautiful pendant, I like the discrete bezel and the patterns in the cab.

I have looked at this pendant at least 20 times, trying to come up with the right words, but all I come up with is stunning, absolutely stunning. I love malachite, it's one of my favorite stones, but the silver just sets it right off, and stands it out! Gorgeous work! Marie
