This took forever, but it's finally done. I haven't polished it and it looks like I could tweak the bail a bit. The weaving looks much better in person- this is why it took so long- I'm the world's slowest weaver. I have to take breaks. This is a gorgeous stone, a Morenci Chrysocolla with druzy. Love the druzy. Can't see it that great in the picture, but it's really nice. I had this in a wrap that I absolutely hated, so I took it apart and redid it. I even added some gold. |

A beauty! I bet that druzy sparkles real nice in person.

Beautiful and different from what you usually do I'm just curious from a seller's point of view- how would you describe my usual style? I think I have done a few of almost every style. I've even done my own version of a few heady wraps. But, all that weaving ain't for me. |

A great one.
Love that you redid the wrap on that cab. The gold works well.

A great one. Love that you redid the wrap on that cab. The gold works well. Thanks! I almost posted a pic of the original again, but I didn't want to embarrass myself. LOL!
I don't usually mix metals because I, personally, don't care for the look much, but I think this called for it.

Beautiful as always. I see your jewelry as elegant and uncluttered. Simplistic but that isn't the right term because it can mean childish too. When I start wrapping I'm gonna use you as my first inspiration. Wanna visit?!

Wouldn't it be cool to get up with Susan at the same time? |

Very nice, Tela! Your pieces are always top notch, and this one is definitely no exception. I think about weaving and it makes me shudder...  |

To me your style is elegant, feminine and I guess "simple" for the lack of a better word. I think you could do an anonymous post and we would all know it is your work.

That looks like it took a lot of work. I don't think I have the patience to pull off a long, drawn out project like that right now. Thank you for sharing!
