Here's some new ones, some from my old stock, and a couple from the pre-forms that Jamie sent me. I gotta say, the pre-forms were a perfect fit for my cab mounts! From left to right, first row: Wildhorse picture jasper (Jamie), Sheep Creek plume agate, African brecciated jasper from Kim ("Rockyraccoon"), and an unknown from one of Jamie's pre-forms. Also, all but the first one on the first row were done in four-prong mounts that Jamie sent as gifts ;D Second row: Not sure, slab that "Floydrocks" sent as a gift, Malachite (gift from a lady "Kathy Benjamin" that owns a shop), Turritella agate (Jamie), and two more unknowns (pre-forms) from Jamie.... One more, this is Red jasper from the local petstore that I did a while back but never posted....

Those cabs are beautiful. And that last one sure has a great pattern. If I didn't love wrapping so much, I'd convert to using those mounts. It is very very tempting.

They all have character and charm. Those mounts look great also. After seeing that last one, I think I need to check out my local pet shops more often! Fran

I really like the smaller sized cabs and the settings. What size are those cabs and may I ask where do you get the settings?

Roxy- the trays come from a store in downtown Norfolk named "Dolphin Fixtures". They sell display cabinets too.
The four-prong settings were part of a trade with "Floydrocks", I'll do some looking and fing out where they can be purchased. I need to find some gold ones. The size is around 8x10mm.

Beautiful! My favs are the picture jasper and the 3rd one in the 1st row, together with the chrysoprase. And the pendant in the close-up, of course!
