A couple of pieces I cut open, tumbled & had Earth Relics Jewelry Co. (free4rms) do his electroforming on for me. I added a little extra to these two pieces. This one has a faceted garnet tucked in the little hollow there. This one I made a jump ring out of gold filled wire to frame the chrysoprase & realized that wasn't going to work so I flatteded it. Yes, there is a little gap there but I am not going to expect perfection on my first try. I used epoxy to attach the stones in both pieces.

Oh wow!! These are great!! Very interesting stuff and the electroplating is cool, too. But the addition of the accents really gives these a high end look. Super cool!!

Those are cool, unique, and some will be proud to wear them. What do you think they could sell for? Karock

Those are really beautiful and unique. I love the way the garnet draws out the reds in the coral -- it really highlights that detail of the cab in a wonderful way. The second reminds me for some reason of old maps of the world for some reason -- but it's something that makes me go 'oooh!' very loudly as a result.
