This teardrop free form turned out really nicely I thought, but I really like the blue's in rocks!
 Maybe I'm weird.  It's very very gemmy with iris agatization solidy mixing through the blue chrysocolla. Anyways, just thought I'd share some recent cutting work in colors......hope you enjoy.  CP

Boy I sure like this blue in stone, here are several more I cut this week from the same material.
The oval (20 x 15mm) and square (16mm) are template sizes in the first picture as is the rectangular cab in the second pic. All three show a hint of the malachite layers inlcuded too where you see the light green color bleed in. Enjoy.........  This is the rectangular cabochon (25 x 18mm) which will be polished on the backside and wrapped in sliver I'm thinkin'  The back side has a double druzy pocket which plays a ghost to the blue owl on a tree limb.  pic of the back will have to be updated later as I didn't do that side yet  ......Hey Denise, miss work by hand......  How bout' ya' hook me up on the back polish?

How bout' ya' hook me up on the back polish? My pleasure Dan! Here is the backside of your beautiful cabochon Dan, sorry it took so long to give this update.  I tend to take multitasking to the max.  I love the way this side looks. Definately looks like an owl in a tree, with a mysterious looking ghost owl looking on. BTW........Happy Birthday babe!
