Yup! You sure are worth it babe! Those are all some spectacular hearts, WOWSER!
I'm sure I'd spike a scrape down the middle if I tried to do that shape. gggggaaaasssssiiiiiikkkkkkk! Oh rats! Here's a one of A kind heart in boulder opal she just finished. Very sparkly veins through nearly all the ironstone matrix with some great green, blues, purples and even a couple red sparkles. Even though there are a couple fractures, she said no way she can grind it down any more. In hand this flashes brightly in different colors at just about every angle from different points. Impossible to see that in just two pics but here's and idea how colorful this one turned out. The size is a chunky 32 x 32 at just over 14 grams and was carved from an end cut of rough material. One side rough and one flat, that was a toughie to even out. This is the front side..... the backside, you can see the electric green/blue swirl but in hand it's much more flashy. Very cool honey, KACHOW! -------------------- CP-Owner/Administrator
