Lovely! This is one of the resons that I love copper so much. I can't even imagine this in silver- it is so pretty as it is. I love everything about it.... and I know how hard it is to make things look random, so your "bezel" really impresses me.

I should mention that this stone was found on her very 1st rock hunt, I am so very happy she and I are online buddies and I got to do this. She got it yesterday, and is just thrilled. It was a little surprise gift I sent her, as she was having me make some other things from her batch of stones.

OMG, stunning. That looks really difficult to do! What a perfect color match the stone and the wire are! Very true, silver wire would not be good for that piece.

thank you! I *like* working with silver, but I think copper has a lot of beautiful things that can be done with it. I think I wrap more copper now than silver
