I got a request yesterday to make a very inexpensive Petoskey stone pendant to be used as a secret Santa gift for a child. I got a small jar of Petoskeys in a recent estate purchase so I figured I would just grab one out of there not really caring too much about the quality for what I was doing. As soon as I sliced it in half I knew this was not going to be used for a glue on bail pendant. I had to cab it properly and fully wrap it. The other half of this rock was not as spectacular and I should be able to fill the order with what is left. Thanks for looking Chuck

Yeah, really nice and clean. I have two petoskeys that I bought from you and I really love them. I believe I posted one of them recently. I did that one in copper only for practice. But the design came out nice so I posted it. I am really excited to do those petoskeys in gold, though. And seeing yours in silver, now I know those stones look good in silver. Not too much the copper, lol.. Anyway, very nice stone and wrap!

Great job on that one. The stone really shows off the coral structure well.

Nice stone and I really like the wrap job on that one. Russ Thanks Russ. Been doing mostly groove wraps so I had to get re-trained for this one. Chuck
