Here is a couple of local agates. the one on the left looks like snow flakes in a clear agate, and the one on the right is a red moss in blue agate. Found them both, and cabbed them last weekend. p.s. ( the agate in the background is an Ellensburg blue , found a couple of years back). Thanks for looking! ;D agates are groove wrapped with 18 ga. sterling. Attachments:

Both stones and grooves look great. I started out grooving deep to totally hide the wire. I now like the wire being partially exposed. Looks great. In the process of making 15 cabs/wraps right now and think I'll try that.

Great pieces. Always the best when you can find 'em and then work them up into your own creations. Very, very cool!

Very finely done. I like how you flattened out the bail wire.

Beautiful cabs and beautifully wrapped! I like the hammered simple bails you made on these pendants.

Love the simple style, very nice. So just one piece of wire? Is there a tutorial somewhere?
