Zoitka, I have known a lot of people who can do an one off. I can count on one hand those who can do two. If I could only introduce you to mr. Miligrain tool. That would be the Full Monty. The small divot in the lower left side of the bottom piece would be absorbed without much work. I see you learned from the first one. The second piece, the lower stone, the bezel is better centered. A small thing, I like. Great silversmithing.

Thank you all. Do you mind if I ask what Kind of stones they are? Roxy, the green one is chrysoprase the other one is chalcedony - both from Serbia.

Z...are you self taught? Did you ever take any classes? No classes. Only books (actually one book - and a good one) and Internet, and of course learning on my mistakes. There are no courses in Serbia for metalsmithing. There are high schools but I didn't like the idea of getting to high school again. ;D

Thanks very much, Doc. Regarding that miligrain tool - is it something like this? If so, how do you use it? Thanks. Zoran

Zoitka, Here is a site for miligrain tools. They work like gravers. www.ishor.com/MillgrainBeader.htmI use them a lot. They really help to blend designs. I prefer them to bright cutting.
