Awhile back, Lori (sitnwrap), had a contest of which I was luckey enough to win. The prize was the "enchanted cab". Some of you may remember it. I contacted Lori and ask her if she would be interested in wrapping it for me because I wanted to give it to my mom for her 81st birthday. She said she would love to wrap it for me and did. I can't remember the wire gauge sizes but, she did it in argentium silver. And, she would not take any type of payment for doing this for me. Thank you again Lori! You are special and, if you ever need any rocks slabbed up or something I can do, you know how to get ahold of me!! Ooh!, and my mom loved it Lori ! She was enchanted I love the twisted wire design on the sides gr

Love that wrap. Great use of metal without hiding the stone.

Gary, I am so glad you mom likes it and it was a pleasure to do for you. That is the most favorite part of this whole rock hobby taught to me by others like yourself . The wrapping of it should have been part of the prize but I just wasn't thinking. lol. The wire is 22 gauge dead soft and the bindings are 22 gauge half hard.
