Jim,
Cool stuff! I really like the Brazilian, very nice work there. The bone ring is a kinda crazy work, creative... looks good. I'd be worried a critter might want to snatch it off my finger though. The blackened back definitely sets off the Opal. Good work! -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER!

Thanks much!!! Actually my doggie knawed on it for a long time before I ever picked it up. So there wasn't much more than bone left.

It has been awhile since I showed my face around here. So I thought that I would show a few of the things that I have done since the ring. The first is a piece of pietersite...probably spelled wrong...that I grooved and wrapped for a friend. Next is my latest piece. Crysocolla, azurite, pyrite mix cab with jade accents, moss agate and silver beads. Next is a brecciated agate cab in silver wrap. This one is reversible. It looks the same on both sides. A few pair of earrings. My first attempt at carving. Fire agate. And a second ring.

Another bone ring?
Your stuff looks great Jim! The Fire Agate kinda looks like a skull.I've never seen Azurite buffed out into a cab and it looks incredible... the rough specimens I've seen at the shows are always stunning. Nice work! -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER! Very Happy CP Lifetime Member CP CORE TEAM Referral Code CE213 |

Yea another ring. This one is not a ham bone , rather a more traditional medium stag horn that I got from a flintknapper that was at our annual show in Feb. I made this one with my ring finger as a template for size. So it fits me rather well. The cab with azurite was a piece that was traded to me so it was the only piece of that that I had. Sure would like to have a few pounds of it. Nice hard material. The fire agate piece is on a chain around my neck...that one is mine all mine.

This is a ring that I had Steve Wandt made for us. This is the fourth opal that has been set in it. I cut and set this one myself. Australian white. The first one broke across the middle, the second lost it's color,
The third I broke setting it. This time I ground a high spot out of the center of the setting. So far this one is holding up great. |
