These managed to come out of the weekend, but wrecked 3 pieces in the final stages, one was impressive as I closed some hollow square wire, and it made a nice pop when I later heated it from some trapped flux / water..   Don't mind the learning and time, but hurts to loose the silver.

Moss and diamonds, camera couldn't capture the pinks and greens exactly.  But pretty close, love this unknown material just had a small amount of rough.
