Don - Don, did you make the mokume yourself or did you buy it? The rings are awesome! Love the Holly Blue, too.

Always wanted to try that. Someday maybe I'll get up the nerve to do it.  |

Amazing, your work is perfect. Now your desk on the other hand looks like mine....I don't feel so bad now. Kidding aside I like what you have done. I am going to pick up some of that sheet when I go to Albuquerque in a couple weeks. Does it take regular solder for the rings?

I use easy solder on it, the least amount of heat I can get away with and still get a good seam. It doesn't like being cooked at all. |

Beautiful, as always. That Holly Blue is gorgeous! Great saturated color and I love the orbs- don't think I have seen that before.

The copper might be "simple?" but it is my favorite!
