These pictures just can't capture this specimen.
I was asked to wire it. Just dove in and this is what came out.
The bail is Big for a big chain. It will need it.
Keeping with the KISS theory as this stone is gorgeous.
Bottom.

Back.. Cool sparkly quartz.

Other side of the back.

Side of the front..Gemmy.

Straight on....

Looks like it was definitely a challenge to wrap and you rose to the challenge. That's a pretty piece of fluorite, especially with druzy quartz on it.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
