Outstanding work! I especially like how you incorporated the matrix with the agate in the third image.

Very nice cabs.  Love the variety and shapes.  I was wondering on the first image with the peach colored agates I see some veil fractures, is that original in the material or is it sensitive to heat in the polishing process?  Some wonderful stones!

The peach colored pendants are Mexican calcite. The fractures are natural to the stone. Relatively soft stone so it doesn't take much to get a good polish (minimal heat).
