Just got this in the mail today. SUPER INCREDIBLE AWESOMELY COOL CABS! This was hard to photograph because it seems dark to my camera, but in person it isn't so dark. My granddaughter said it looked like it was painted and I agree. Is this not an awesome pattern??? I used some #11 delica seed beads to bring out the red in the stone. The bail is quite strong- hammered 14g. Thanks Randy  I have to reply to this to post another picture because I can only post one. Attachments:

Spectacular design. Kind of has an organic/medieval feel to it.

Thanks everyone I have to admit, I really like this. I wasn't sure if it would come together all right, but it's solid as a .... rock. LOL! |

That is a really beautiful piece. The stone is a stunner, and the setting really brings out the colors brilliantly. It's a really distinctive setting, too; I love the beading around the edge the way it contrasts with the very clean lines of the wire work. It reminds me of a fusion of something very modern with a tribal relic in some respects, which is an incredible look.

rockjunquie ....
I got your PM and thank you so much for your offer.
However, there are just so many pieces here on these boards that I can attempt, I probably will not be able to do all of them at least once before I leave this planet.
Enjoy!!
