So I've seemed to calm down the wire wrapping madness phase I was going through (somewhat! ;D) Here's Nephrite's jade that I cabbed and wrapped in sterling and gold filled: And a beautiful cab from Desertdweller, also wrapped in sterling and gold filled:

I too love the first one, for some reason the orientation does it for me - or maybe I'm a sucker for jade... great job

The jade (is it black?) is one of the most elegant pendants I've seen. Only I would had left it only in silver, without gold but that's a matter of personal taste.

Who ever places either one around their neck is going to feel like royality. My personal fav is the top one but they both are incredably elegant.
You out did yourself!

I really like the color contrasts with these. There is so much going on to feast the eye. I still can't imagine what the back looks like... can you give us a pic, please T

That first one is absolutely stunning. I love it and the subtle addition of color the smaller GF wire added.

FUSSY!?? lol. I haven't even posted the 'fussier' ones here on a rockhound group forum! I know better... In my metalworking group, it's not near enough compared to theirs...hehe. Sigh. Only for you, Tony W. The back (shudder) The top one is my fav too. But now I'm starting to miss copper...

Dee that looks pretty cool, nice job on the cab too. I am not much of a wrap type dude, never tried it and probably never will. Just give me a boulder and grinder and I am happy. I will leave the wrap thing to the women lol! Glad you are able to make something beautiful out of the jade I gave you, glad to send more your way if you need it too.

Dee! Ii is beautiful!! There is an elegant chaos to the backs that enhances the piece I really do like the backs. There is an organic spiderwebby quality that is very nice. Thanks for posting these for me. I am in your debt And you have no reason to sigh and shudder, lol! T
