This one is woven in 20G round, 22G half round and 28G round for the weaves. Anybody got an ID on the stone? It is a small slab I bought at a show. I really must write these down when I go to shows.   and the back  This one is a Siderite cab wrapped in bronze colored copper wire.  Sorry Nate, I told you this stuff was Stillibite. It is Siderite. I had it written down. Does no good if I can't remember where I wrote it. I'm gettin old. Thanks for lookin, Amy |

The first one is my favorite. Love the way you framed the cab with the weaves. I'm like you, need to remember to write down what the rock is when I get it although sometimes the seller doesn't even know what it is unfortunately.

That's a cool weave, Amy. The siderite's pretty nice too.
It's no big deal on the I.D., I wouldn't have known either way lol.

My guess on the first one might be Chrysocolla. Or Shattuckite?
