Very nice work on all of those. I'm partial to the chrysocolla but those are all outstanding.

I always enjoy seeing your work. Your clean style of design plus its professional-level execution are really great in my book. Those pieces should sell really well.

They're all beautiful. Hard to pick a favorite out of the three. They're all high on my list. The Holley is awesome but it's hard to beat Inspiration Mine chrysocolla, too. Labradorite always make me drool. Oh heck, I give up!

I like simple lines, clean and well built settings that show off the stones. Often I feel that my style is unappreciated at the markets because they are not visually complicated and deceptively simple looking compared to the southwest style that is so popular here.

No accounting for taste I guess. I'm sorry to hear your design style doesn't move well at shows. Have you considered gallery sales? It's been years since I lived in Utah but I know there must be shops in Park City, SLC and along the Wasatch Front etc. where your work would be a great "fit," hopefully with higher margins as well. Best of luck to you.

World class material, masterfully worked. Love the final look of all the pieces. As said before on here, simple lines, yet extremely elegant.
