Beautiful work! Absolutely love the Purple plume agate. What type of bezel did you use on the other one? It looks very interesting from the top.

Your "4th of July"* pendant is exceptional, Bill! I like the other one, too. Considering the prior pieces you've posted, I think that you've developed a cohesive and compelling style of work where the silver itself has as much to say as the cab does. Impressive.
*Sorry. Make that a "Canada Day" pendant!

I don't know which I like most about the first one- the stone or the pendant. Loving it!

hummingbirdstonesThanks. The bezel wire is pre-fab from Rio. It is called Sterling Silver "Swag" Gallery Wire. Item # 103268. It is very hard. Better pic below

opalpyrexiaNever saw the fireworks til you mentioned it! I am very early in the game at this point and have not yet developed a style of my own. Right now I am getting my inspiration from an artist in Portland, OR, Amy Buettner.

That Purple Plume Agate is SICK! I really like that pendant...and LOVE that stone! I really really really like the design of that second pendant! Not only the bezel wire you chose, but the overall split look to the whole thing! Gorgeous!

Well I for one can't wait until you hit your stride as you have already shown a lot of really nice stuff here. Thanks for the tip about Amy, been checking out her website, beautiful creations.
