Hey everyone,

After digging through 91 jewelry boxes ... wouldn't you know it ... the last one was the one I was looking for, was it!

Well here she is "Lady of the Forest"

Located from the center of the stone (the top of her head) down to the bottom center of the stone (with her hair ending just above the wire).

You can see her eye, nose and chin with her flowing golden hair gently laying on her shoulders.

Do you see her, or, have I finally lost my mind?

I have a gentleman that does some absolutely gorgeous wire wrapping for me. He combines the 14K gold filled square wire with the 14K gold filled half round wire to create a wire wrapped pendant that accentuates the stone very elaborately.

Someday, I too will learn this form of art ... but, for now, I am sticking to the stones!

Enjoy,

John

I have seen paintings in the sky, created by the hands of GOD.

Yes I do see her, it's almost like she's coming out from behind a tree or near a rock wall with her hair flowing off to the side. Great job, and that wire wrapping is fabulous. Cher

Great looking piece though (all the photos you put up were amazing, should sell like hotcakes!)

Hope you don't mind Bear ... Here's the orignal, slightly enlarged.

Here's where I see the lady.

It wasn't until after I did this that I saw the lady that Bear
is talking about. (At least I think this is what you meant.)
