I did another one already... I've been wanting to wrap this one for a while. It's a little boulder opal cab I got from ebay for cheap. It actually has quite a bit of sparkle to it, but I couldn't catch it in photos. It's full of red, green, and blue sparkles... almost like it has glitter in it. Wrapped in 21ga silver as usual...  ... attempt to get some of the flash, this was the best of like 20 photos...  ..and the back... it's not a simple as it looks   Thanks everyone, especially the "angel" who made this possible  ...

Hey Now!!! Now that's what I like seeing... Chris using his mad skills on beautiful material! Love the curve and swerve, and nicely framed BO with plenty of pow! Jo

Great work, you did a wonderful job setting off the stone. That back does look complicated.

That is a really cool design. You did a good job catching the elusive flash. I bet it is stunning in the sunlight. When I see Opal flashing without a very obvious vein, I call it phatom flash. lol

Thanks as always guys ( yall' are just too kind ).... I've been meaning to do a couple more, but I got delayed a little ( Di broke her leg, more of a sprain really... but she did chip her femur  ). Hey Now!!! Now that's what I like seeing... Chris using his mad skills on beautiful material! Love the curve and swerve, and nicely framed BO with plenty of pow! Jo Funny you should say that... Diane wore this to a craft fair the other day, and a woman selling jewelry said the exact same thing when she noticed it, " Oooo, I love the curve and swerve " while doing a cute little dance  ... you had to be there, It was just too funny . That is a really cool design. You did a good job catching the elusive flash. I bet it is stunning in the sunlight. When I see Opal flashing without a very obvious vein, I call it phatom flash. lol " Pantom flash ", Perfect name for it Lori, Thanks !!! A friend of mine asked me how the glitter got in there ;D... And yes, It really does look good in the sunlight... Take care all, Chris |
