Holy crap that jade is small!! Both are really good looking pieces!

I've been curious about working turquoise. I don't have any plans to work on it any time soon...I just see a bunch of it on eBay while I'm "window shopping"! How do you feel it works compared to other materials?

LOVE the turquoise cab! It's a beauty.

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

It would be nice to see the jade again, when you set it. Patty
