If I posted the descutes before, sorry. I can't remember if I did or not. I haven't told DH about the Halloween challenge, but when I showed him the rhodonite, he said it looked like Halloween. LOL! But, I have other plans for that.
Trying out something different with the pictures. Only ambient light in a mostly dark room. The camera phone really gathers a lot of light.

I really like the effect you are getting with the lighting. There is nothing competing with your creations, and everything, from the pattern on the rock, to the lines of the wire, to the antiquing, is crystal clear.

Tela, even your "simple" wraps are chock-full of elegance!

Very pretty, Tela! I really do like the look of the lighting in those pictures.
That Deschutes is killer!

I also like the Deschutes.
The top detail around the bail looks interesting, I'm thinking the 2 rings I see are the back wires secured.
But it ties it in nicely with the add on bail.
+2 for good lighting.
Nice photos
I keep staring at the rhodonite,(which is equally nice), but I can't for the life of me think of Halloween But then it must be a guy thing, as Tom just came in and said, it's the spooky trees !

I really do like the look of the lighting in those pictures. That Deschutes is killer! Thanks, Robin. I was being really lazy and didn't want to set up the lights and viola!
Gotta love Deschutes. I also like the Deschutes.

I'll get a shot of that detail. It's 2 coils that sit on the shoulders. Nice in person, but very angle reliant- if I can even say that.
Glad you like the lighting, too. Looks like a keeper.
I didn't see it, either and DH doesn't have the greatest imagination so I was taken aback.
Thanks!

Thank you Tela,
AH ! - the hidden details. Not anything like I imagined- much nicer & the wrap looks reversible.
An interesting way to end (get rid of) another pair of wires . Thanks for the inspiration

Nice ! I don't know why, but I thought Peacock- long & slender with swirls. Looks like that one earned a whole necklace .
You're full of good ideas.
Thanks for showing it,
Patty

Old style, actually. I think it's called Egyptian coils.

All three outstanding can’t even wrap my head around the photos from a phone camera. What ever you’re doing keep it up. Love the design of the wrap on each of the stones the last one is really cool thx for sharing

I turned off the flash and let the ambient light be the only light. The camera did the rest.

That's so beautiful. How on earth did you do that top part though? Sorry, not sure if that counts as the bail, I'd welcome a terminology correction.
