Beautiful wraps, I especially like the first one, maybe I'm partial to the silver. So, do you tumble them with the stones in? Is there any danger of damage? How long do you tumble them? Sorry for all the questions, but those look great.

thanks Rich.
yes they tumble in stainless steel shot after the stones are in place. I have not had any damage to any stones yet and I even threw in a soft petoskey stone cab as a test last night and after an hour it was fine. I have been letting them roll for about two hours but I just started so I'll let others chime in on the time question.

I'm partial to silver too and that first one stands out to me although the patina looks great with the colors in that second cab.

It's a great marriage between stone and metal.

The wire for each compliment the stones.
