Hello, everyone! That's what i worked these days. Firstly, a set (pendant and ear-rings) made from a Crazy lace slab that I have from Stonesthatrock: The depth of the pattern is amazing: Then, a piece of local brecciated jasper that I polished on all of its surfaces (faces and laterals). I don't know if "cab" is the best name for it, but here it is: After I made it, I gladly noticed that it even stands vertically, and because of the fact that the base is also polished and slightly curved it can spin on the table Thank you for looking, Adrian

Great work, Adrian. Both Crazy Lace Agate set and Brecciated Jasper are beautiful. With that brecciated jasper, cause it is spinning - you got nice desktop toy. Although, in the second pic from below one can clearly see that you actually bought this desktop toy from KOH-I-NOOR. ;D Great shine. Zoran

The earring and necklace set are awesome!! The gaint cab is too cool as well, the reflection of the writing on the pen really shows off the shine.

Wow - you really do terrific wrapping (and polishing!!) work! That set is beautifully done and I'm still drooling over the brecciated jasper chunk. Nancy

You are right Adrian, the depth in the Lace is amazing as if you could fall inbetween the ribboning lines. A beautiful set.
That Braciated Jasper is wonderful. Don't spin it too much, you don't want to scratch that incredable shine.

The Crazy Lace set is so beautiful. I do like that pattern, it does have tremendous depth. The jasper is stunning, nice work Adrian.

Thanks again! Wow! ... And now you polish bolders ... Tony Tony, in fact that's how I started the hobby, and I still like very much to find (or create) on boulders surfaces proper for polishing. One of these days I might picture and post my collection of large polished rocks. Adrian

Beautiful set Adrian. Drill a hole in the large piece and make it a pen holder.
