Indonesian (Sumatra) agatized birds eye palm root. Very rare, very beautiful. I posted this cab a long time ago and finally got around to doing the pendant. Just added a finely woven bail with 28g wire.

The simplicity is nothing short of elegant--and perfect. The cab is beautiful. I don't think it gets any better.

I love the contrast in it. I also like how the wrap is simple letting the cab take center stage. Nate

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)
