A while back, someone posted this guys site and I just fell in love with what he does. What with all the different types of koroit & opals, I thought some of you might like to see them again. (I don't remember him having that many rings with the opal in them.) www.ringofartist.com/favorite.htmPlease take a minute & look. He does wonderful work.

Those are awsome! I think his prices are too low for the amount of work that goes into them.

I second tonyterners comment, he is giving away his artistry, I'd be half tempted to buy a bunch of them just to re-sell at twice what he's asking.

WOW; so seamless; if I didn't know what the materials where I wouldn't know what was meant by the "on"; they look like they are carved from a single rock.

Pretty incredible, 2 to 5 hours per ring? I figured it would take longer than that. It would take me 2 to 5 months to get it right. Beautiful materials he chose to work with.
