So awhile back I made a cab out of a cool Teepee Canyon Agate that I had collected and liked each side so much that I domed them both. The problem was that with my limited skills in wire-wrapping I didn't know how to do it so whoever wore it could pick whichever side they wanted. So I reached out to John ( lpl ) to see if he had any suggestions. His advice was to send it to him, that he would do it for me.  He sent me pictures of the finished product but I just opened the package and it looks fantastic! So thanks again, John!

Here ya go, irlcjrohr. No willing models around and it might look better hanging on a silver chain...but I think it still looks good.  |

I think how a pendent hangs is so important to the overall effect. You're welcome, and thanks! That's one thing I don't do enough of, seeing how it hangs. But I should...

Wowzer! What a great collaborative effort between miket and lpl! Fantastic looking pendant you two! I was going to say something about "how's it hanging"...but I'm just not going to say anything about that.  You're going to have to charge double for this "two-in-one" pendant, because both sides of that Teepee look astounding. |

I can see why you'd want to display both sides. Very nice.

And I'm sure that I don't know what you mean...  Not sure what I'll do with this one. I don't really wear jewelry and really like how this one came out.
