Actinolite In quartz
« on: July 03, 2016, 07:56:11 PM »
Having a hard time getting a good picture. The clear quartz reflects everything and the camera wants to focus on the background instead of the stone.  Maybe I need to drag out the old 35 mm
It really looks cool with the one actinolite crystal in the middle. I think I will cut a groove in it and do a single wire wrap

Its clear, if you don't do the lapidary work perfectly it will show up, I cut a groove in it this AM and wrapped it in gold filled wire. Next thing I know it is hanging around my wife's neck. When I can get it for a few minutes I will try and get a good pic. She has permission to claim anything I make.
