As you all know....we like to prospect, cut, polish just about any rocks, gems, minerals....
  So it just seemed natural we should combine some of those finds into combination lapidary pieces. Colorado has some purty' gold and nice dark colored agates. We have gotten all the supplies together, dug some of that dark Colorado agate out of the buckets, picked out a few choice gold flakes from Vic's, also here in Colorado....... And viola......Let us know what you think.  Oh and the square one is already designated for Geno......but if ya' are intersted in the others, give us a hollar.  CP

Thanks Faaus,
The clock did turn out well and hopefully Gat ain't knocked off any nuggets yet!  Here are a couple more projects using gold as inlays and or as dressing material to finish pieces. This one was done for Faaus with his own gold for a custom order. He said he couldn't find his daughters nickname "lollimom" anywhere on anything.  This piece is a carved amazonite flower with gold flakes for center pieces, accented by a gold & silver wire wrap  A smokey quartz crystal with gold flakes dressing out the top, accented by a twisted gold loop in 14k filled wire.
