Most of this material is from oldschoolrocker and roy . Hope I did some justice but had a few break after completed. Am trying to get some experience with a wider variety of materials. Love this material. Thanks oldschoolrocker This one's left side broke off shortly after taking off the dop stick. Don't know what the material is... There's some blue in it and wasn't sure if that was natural or enhanced somehow... I'll have to recut but will be a while. Crack showed up as I was grinding. It's in two pieces now. Can't get a good pic of this one but here it is.

Is the second one Colla Wood?
I like the blue- looks like dumortierite. I'm sure I spelled that wrong.
Too bad about the glass, that was a big crack!
My fav is the Montana.

Pretty cabs! Too bad about the cracky ones. The second one looks like Cholla Wood to me, too. I really like the first one. The colors are so vibrant.

The winners are definite winners...and the cracked ones are definite heartbreaks!
I love that last one...maybe pick more of a black background to get it to show up better. I really like all of them...but that last one is something special!

Beautiful work! Definitely did them justice. Sorry bout the millifiori glass. I got several colors of it a while back and just recently started playing around with some again and the black gave me most problems. All had a few air bubbles in them but could see and avoid them in the transparent colors.
