More of his work in progress; he didn't get much time to work on it today, because long-postponed errands took up most of it. Those black smudges are oxidation, which gets swabbed on, then buffed off, both to give it a lightly aged look and to make the stampwork pop. The big stone is Koroit opal, which comes from the lands of Koroit, Asutralia, and here it's in brecciated host rock, only little matrix hints of blue fore showing (which you can see on its lower left if you click on the photo here). Also tiger's eye, lapis lazuli, golden rutilated quartz, iolite, citrine, and more iolite. Might be ready as early as tomorrow; my guess is more likely on Sunday.

We're still hoping to put aside enough for a new well when the ground thaws enough to drill in the spring, too, Nah, we've given up on the well. No one's available to drill before late next year at the earliest, and this year's tax burden means we would never be able to afford it anyway. But it's even more of a good time to make a purchase, because Uncle Sam is a vindictive colonizer, and my current stress levels about paying it all are off the charts. And there's lots of fabulous work, so please share all of the links.
