Title: New Brazilian Cabocarving
Post by: bobby1 on June 11, 2016, 03:16:39 PM

This is my latest project. It is a Brazilian Agate that has elements of cabochon making and carving. It is 3" tall.

Nice, Bob.  It's very different from your usual big cabs and I really like it, too!   :headbang:

Excellent Bob, no easy job with all the variation in curves you have there.

Beautiful lines!, I love the long drawn out radius pulling down and accentuating the dark line of the cab.  Great work, I love it.
