Per a request I wrapped the fire agate I recently cut. This was a big one! I never know how a wrap is going to turn out. I just figure out where to put the bindings and then run with it. It is an adventure every time. I used jewelers brass and sterling on this one. I reminds me of the ocean with a cool breeze and a colorful sunset with clouds....... I filed and smoothed down all the ends and tested it on my wife to make sure there were no pokies.

That is very nice Christopher and different than most and doesn't overwhelm the stone. You never cease to amaze..

As always, awesome job! The photo setting sets off the agate well.

Thank you, thank you, & THANK YOU, Chris! I am very pleased with what you provided me on this special order for my wife's B-Day coming up. To any of you folks out there that don't already know this, Chris is a wonderful craftsman and a great guy to work with. If you are like me, and lack the skills to turn out such a beautiful piece of stone and jewelry on your own, Chris is the man to make contact with! I can not say enough about my pleasure of working with Chris on this project.
