Here are a few of my new wire wrap creations. I have been looking into wire wrap mounts to display some of the 30x40mm cabs I was chunking-out for Christmas presents last year... ended up with a few extra. Brecciated Jasper  Unknown agate I picked out of the small slab scrabble box on my last trip to The Consolidated Rock and Minerals Shop here in Vacaville CA (same with the Brecciated Jasper)  |

Wires compliments the stones very well. I like the contrast between the color of the wrap wire and the silver necklace chain.

Very nice! You might say practice pieces, but I've seen a whole lot worse for sale. What kind of wire are you using?

Thank you Tela The Brecciated Jasper is wrapped with 20ga R H gold colored wire (The Rock Shed) - the wraps are done in 22ga R H wire. Real gold wire is a bit beyond my present skill level. The Agate is done in copper with 20ga R DS (twisted for hardness), and the wraps done in 18ga HR DS Glenn |
