This is a set I made trying for a little more contemporary style. Rather than quite so "old school" as so many of my pieces are. I like this Turquoise & wanted also to show it off as larger stones. The red/orange is Lion's Paw shell. Hope you like it & thanks for looking. Mike    |

I agree with Adrian. Great combination. Never would have thought of that myself.

Thanks all for your kind words. I do love working with Turquoise. Even though I hand pick the rough. You never know exactly what it will look like till you start slabing it. When I cut large slabs. I just can't bring myself to cut them into smaller cabs. So I have to come up with ideas to use them in the larger size. LOL Sometimes my wife complains that the necklaces are too big or heavy (She's only 5ft tall LOL).
