My wife is not a big jewelry person at all. She doe's not really care for my rock pendants in general as they are too heavy for her liking. The two she currently has are a fordite (wrapped) and bowlerite (smithed). Both of those materials are very light. I made this ocean jasper cab a bit smaller then my normal cabs in hopes that she might like it. If she don't like it I'll let her return it, LOL.  Chuck |

It’s a very pretty cab and nice clean setting. About how big is it? Sometimes the chain material can really make a difference. Different styles of chain weave are more or less comfortable. Might be an idea to try a couple options. Even leather or cotton cording might be more comfortable for her. Hope she likes it!🤞Its nice you are thinking of her and trying to accommodate her preferences.👍👍

I have a feeling that she'll like that one.

It's very nice Chuck, Drummond Island Rocks And I think khara has a good point- put it on a lighter chain right off, so out of the box it's different than usual. Patty |

It is more about a bulky pendant hanging then it is about the chain. Chuck |

I certainly like it and I bet she will, too. Thank you. This was originally a rectangle cab and it chipped while setting it the first time. I traced an oval on the back that I thought would avoid that chip and re-cabbed it. Just the slightest hint of the chip is still visible at the top in the photo. Not really noticeable in person. I could have easily avoided it completely but then I would have lost all of the green in the cab and I really wanted some green. Chuck |
