Howdy! After a brief passage through Hell, I am back in the saddle. I haven't gotten all my pictures done, but here's a few recent ones. MT agate- don't mind the dust. Labradorite, of course- very thick. Indonesian petrified coral OJ Malachite bull's eye spiderweb imperial jasper Kyanite Aussie dendritic opalite Pacific Coast Picasso in copper (bail is copper tone) Hornitos jasper petrified wood with druzy prima vera This is a very long and beautifully colored Victoria stone (Imori stone) It is not chatoyant through out. Only the edges are chatoyant, but very much so. The effect of the solid center and frosty chatoyant edges is very beautiful in person- it has great depth. Thanks for looking, y'all!

Good Lord, the Montana agate and malachite are heavenly.
We're not worthy!

Elegant is the first word that comes to mind for this whole post. Your wraps were missed and I hope there are many more to follow. Glad to have you back.
Is that silver wire with a patina on the Indonesian petrified coral?

Thanks everyone ed- I see that heart potential too, now that you said something! I'll have to explore that some more. chuck- Yup, that is the lone silver with patina in the bunch. I thought that piece really called for it. Oddly, I don't usually put a patina on silver. diane- Thank you so much That weird shape is a stone cut in China, I believe. Have you ever seen Waly-beads on eBay? It's from there. For a long time, they were selling those shapes. First one I ever wrapped and it was a b*&^% to do.

really beautiful work as always. I detect a little 'lighter' look in these new ones,victoria is ethereal, the copper on the Picasso is a knockout. could go on to name favorite features of all of them, your work is art! sorry there has been hell, but so glad you are back. Have missed your posts.
