Great looking piece, Jack! Nice looking setting for the photo as well. You mentioned that this took a while to complete. When did you start (if I can ask) ?

This is the best piece you've produced so far Jack! A LOT of work in it and even though you started it at Easter time it is well worth the time and effort you put into it!
Great work Sir!!!

You made such a beautiful bracelet, I like very much its ancient look. Great silver work and beautiful blue opal cabs.
