Title: Agua Nueva Wire Wrap
Post by: Amethyst Rose on June 03, 2016, 03:20:03 PM

My wife recently finished this piece from a Agua Nueva cab that I had been saving for the Agate Expo in Cedarburg, WI this summer.  She saw it and said she needed to wrap it.  I think it came out well

Beautiful!!  Love the simplicity. It's elegantly understated and let's the stone be the focal point,  as it should be.  Some of the wire wraps I've seen lately are  so gaudy.  Brava!

We always try to let the stone speak and show thru. I have never understood why people take a beautiful stone and hid it under wire.

    I agree !!
when you have a beautiful stone keep it simple. I hate to see a great rock hidden behind wire.  you put all the fancy wire on simple stones

This piece sold at the Agate Expo 2016 this last weekend in Cedarburg WI.  What a show.
