At least that's what I think it is, the cab came from a slab that jasoninsd sent me- if I remember correctly. Purposely asymmetrical to fit the design on the cab.
Thanks for looking.

You get the Steel Trap Memory Award for this week my friend!  I really like how you chose to shape it following the fortification pattern!  One of these days I'm going to do a freeform, and you're gonna faint! LOL |

Jason still colors inside the lines, lol.
That cab is the very interesting. I'm digging on the rainbows inside the more muted colors. Can't stop looking at it trying to figure out how rainbows got in there. The wrap is very nice too.

One of the better ones but I'm gonna be a little nit picky. It appears your binding on the top left has a wire sticking forward and it look like it's not flat.

Pretty pendant, Mike! You could hypnotize someone with that Laguna.  |

That is an amazing cab! I like the wrap, too. Great job! Thanks, my friend! I like the cab, too- as you know, I'm a sucker for banding...  I tried to keep the wrap simple, there's a lot going on with the stone.
One of the better ones but I'm gonna be a little nit picky. It appears your binding on the top left has a wire sticking forward and it look like it's not flat. Thank you, ma'am! I post these to get input- thank you for pointing that out. My old eyes aren't what they used to be.  One little push with the pliers and now it's fixed. Thanks!

Thank you, sir, I appreciate it! Pretty pendant, Mike! You could hypnotize someone with that Laguna.  Thank you, Robin! I know the design seems a little off-center, but that's what I was presented with when I cut the slab. |

I wasn't talking about it being off center at all. I think your wrap compensated for that nicely. I was talking about how close together all those fortification layers are. If you swung that pendant in front of someone's eyes, the patterns in all those layers would hypnotize someone.  |

Now that is a good way to cab and wrap crazy lace. Eye popping beauty!

This is good work, miket. Your wrapping style matches the style of your cabs. I'm starting to think that asymmetrical cabs actually work best for most crazy lace. Trying to "frame" the patterns in a symmetrical cab shape is that makes composition so hard with crazy lace. A true freeform like yours, which simply captures an interesting area of banding and fortifications, often works best. |
