What did you use to stabilize the stone, if you don't mind me asking.

You might be able to do a prong wrap on a cab, leaving a longer top and bottom straight wire and then do the herringbone wrap around it that way, I think that I will have to try this and then post a photo if anyone would like to see it.

I believe that the fifth one, the first in the second row, is Birdseye? Ryolite. The last one looks like Mexican Crazy Lace. The second to the last looks very similar a dendritic stone that I have, which I do not know exactly what it is. Hopely that helps a little.

Thanks Barclay, it was my first time working it and I thought it was extremely hard.
I tried not to distort it and work with what I had. I am pretty happy with it.

Tela, I also admire your work and now I know just how difficult it must be to make this beautiful jewelry, hope all heals well and feels better soon.
I love the Paisley Agate myself, but if you find out what the name of the last one is, would you let me know? I was going thru my slabs today and found that I have several smaller slabs just like it.

Glad to hear all went well, I know what you mean, when I had surgery on my thumb, it was a pain in the bu**.
