I have had this faceted hogg mine rose quartz kicking around since I sent my sapphires to get faceted last year. I threw this in just to fill up my order as shipping to Thailand ain't cheap and it was the same with or without a few extras. The stone is kind of milky (typical for rose quartz) but I thought I should do something with it. Anyhow on my 4th attempt this is what I came up with. The stone is 8mm x 5mm  |

ha ha I just realized what the background was. That is a very small stone beautifully wrapped. You don't need any frills or swirlies on that baby.

That looks pretty nice Scott. That's gotta be a tough stone to wrap, it's so small.

Very Nice! I would be worried I would loose the stone out the sides if it was bumped wrong. Maybe it is seated really well in the wrap. I think it looks good!

This one almost drove me crazy. Its only about 3/4 the size of my little finger nail. Its cut quite deep so it holds in pretty solid in this wrap. Being too loose was the problem with the first 3 tries  |
