We make a lot of various things in Labradorite but the Inukshuks are one of my personal favorites. This one in particular seemed to already have a face in the stone . Carleton usually thinks I am nuts :cheesy: for seeing the faces in the stone but this time he had to admit that he saw it too ;D
We like to keep some of the stone natural so the finished product has a can shine

All four angles and one with the flash on

He stands about 4" tall
I wanted an earthy look so I finished him off with a banded slate base.
Thanks for looking

Hi Chloey. Hate to admit this but I had to look up what an Inukshuk is

As a desert rat I haven't seen any of these before

Very cool.. I really like it, especially the last shot with the flash!!

Thanks for posting this, and adding a new word to my vocabulary ;D

I Wanna Rock!!!

Well the rock in my avatar is just a chunk of labradorite that we found in a shipment it is 100% unaltered,totally looks like a head. I use it often to display for pictures, the "ear" in the pic is a pendant lol . And funny you mention the Moai influence because the Easter Island Heads are next on my project list

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)
