I didn't have much figured to give my wife. Out to dinner of course but? So Sun. afternoon after geting home from church. I grabed a chunk of Peruvial Pink Opal & started grinding. I had to do the hearts at an angel to each other. In wood with more material I'd have done them 90 degees to each other. There is one fracture in one side of the loose one. But it all held together durring the process. I did treat it with very thin crazy type glue. I held my breath while soldering the bale together afrain I'd crack the stone but no the force was with me LOL. Hope you like it she did LOL. Thanks for looking Mike Attachments:

The cutting at any angle other than 90 degree makes this piece a fantastic achievement by itself. A treasure to behold at any time and so much more for this occasion. Fantastic work there.  |
