Finished up a few this morning so I figured its been a while since I have posted and not just lurked in the background checking out everyone elses work so here are mine. Rhodonite Bug  Nickle Silicate from Mike   Pink stuff from the beach in Puerto Vallarta. I'm not sure if its some kind of volcanic rock or a chunk of old tile?  Hematite quartz mix likely from Minnesota   Local Estevan agate   Obsidian and volcanic ash from Oregon  Tiger Eye form South Africa  Jade from British Columbia  Either citrine or yellow aventurine (can't remember which its supposed to be but both yellow quartz) from Murray  Light green Jade (I think) from China  These here ones are some custom ones made from other peoples stones that they had me make into pendants. Usually these stones have a sentimental value to them like maybe they are from where they used to live or their old school yard, so sometimes they are not the greatest material but I do get a fair number of these. Garnet quartz mix    Something red ??    white quartz  |

I like. They are very simple yet elegant. How do you keep the wire around the sides?

Thanks everyone. chaplady the wire is in a groove, check out Adrians tutorial forum.rocktumblinghobby.com/index.cgi?board=wwp&action=display&thread=30091Thanks for putting a name to it Daniel, I just knew it looked like stuff from there and the iron range in northern Minnisota was only a 1 day drive away, but didn't have a name till now. Binghamite is definantly what it is by looking at google pics. |
