I had some cabs that I didn't really like because they were rather plain looking so I decided to give a different style of tree of life wire wrap a try. I think I like how it came out even though it covers the stone. I prefer to show off the stone but when the stone is more plain this seems to dress it up a bit. I used natural copper and bronze colored wire on this one and the cab is a Picasso Stone (Picasso Jasper, Picasso Marble, whatever you want to call it).   Thanks for looking. |

Very nice and the copper color complements the stone.

That goes perfect with that Picasso, Diane. Because the pattern is rather muted, it looks like a sunset cloud sky behind the tree. Well done!

BEEE-UUU-TEE-FULL! That came out perfect! It is the ideal of tree of life pendants. Great way to dress up the otherwise bland stone, too.  |

I promise you some Davidson Chrysacolla. For those of you that dont know what it is I found and have a claim on a incredible claim of chrysavolla, azurite, malachite,turquoise and it's in a hard matrix that shines water wet. I will try to post a pic on here of it.
Di you gonna have to learn me!

That tree really stands out against the sunset and sky. Good idea and use of a muted cab. Thanks!

I have a few more I've made with other stones and a few have even sold. I might have to make some more if I can ever get to feeling well enough to wrap. Thanks for the encouragement. |
