Only got one done. It took a while because I have never done this before. The stone is agate maggot or petrified palm. |

Thanks, Roy. If I'm not mistaken it's from Indonesia. The cab is 30x40mm. |

Cool looking wrap. Love the pattern in the Palm. For some reason when I saw it, it reminded me of a hedgehog.  |

What a sweet wrap. A little more adornment in the wrap provides a nice frame for an interesting but not flashy cab. Very good symmetry on the wrap, as always.

Dang! I love what you did with the two extra wires by clipping and curling! Fantastic design idea Tela!
I still can't quite figure out what you're doing with those front two wires at the bail. I read the description of what you wrote, but I can't seem to get through my head. Do you have a side shot of the bail area? (Or please tag me sometime if you post a side shot...and you remember. LOL)

The copper is perfect with the cab.

Another very pretty wrap. I'm a big fan of palm fiber myself, or of any fossil material that polishes for that matter. Kowing something was once alive adds interest and gives the stone a story.

The copper is perfect with the cab. Thank you, Beth. I thought so, too. I can't even envision this in silver. Another very pretty wrap. I'm a big fan of palm fiber myself, or of any fossil material that polishes for that matter. Kowing something was once alive adds interest and gives the stone a story. Thank you, Mel. I'm always tickled when you find and comment on one of my wire wrap posts. I agree with the palm root. I think it's awesome that this was once part of a living tree. |
