My brain works in more of a geometrical form than a frilly form. It has shown up in a lot of my art and now is no different. Probably no in between here, either you will hate them or love them. When Helen started the newbie box she put in a slab of botroidal Florida coral. I sliced it into enough pieces for everyone on the list to have one. This is mine.    This is some self collected magnatite or other atite with jasper. The neck is an end loop clip for a leather necklace with the loop cut off.   If you think that they do not have a place in the frilly world it is ok to tell me. lol Jim |

They are good Jim. I like the second one. As John said good for a man. I have seen those botyroids before. You have a lot of talent.

Jim, I think there is room in the world for both of them, though I wouldn't wear the last one.

What a beautiful pendant, the first one! I also like the 2nd one very much, those prongs are a very discrete system of holding the stone.

Thanks all for your comments.
And thanks for your honesty Pat. I guess I did good because the second one is a favorite stone that I will keep for myself. I have one more cab from that stone that I will try to make lady like. lol

I thought it was 3 stones until I read John's post about it being reversible! I like both sides but that last one is my favorite. Yes - it's manly but I'd just put it on a chunky chain to feminize it a little

Your wish is my command. lol I just shot a quick (not good) photo of the back. The reason there is a ring on the back is because I do not finish my backs (lower class clientele;) and when I broke off the stick it pulled stone with it. The jasper is hard but the magnatite, or whatever tite it is, will break pretty easy. Jim  |

Thanks Jim! I was close in what I had pictured in my head for how you made the wrap. I am going to give that style a shot. I have several stones it should work for pretty well.  Roger |

Dude! Those are awesome, but the second is really cool. Way to think outside the box. |
