ab, thanks for the compliments! I'm sure if you had a faceting machine you'd be cutting some stunners, too. But I look at it this way - you're creating little pieces of art that someone can actually wear. That is a skill that impresses the heck out of me :-) Maybe one day I'll try my hand in setting, metal work, or wire-wrapping...

Ab, I've been wanting a decent epidote/amethyst combo specimen from down your way for a while. Got any that you might trade or sell?
I like the little wrapped piece. That's a neat way to show pieces like that. Want to do some of our SE US druse like that but alas I have far less skill than you with metal.
