Behold! I'm not sure what type of agate this is, it's not quite black agate. But the cut was fun, I played around with a double crown, and I enjoy both sides of the result. What type of agate do you think it is ? #art #lapidaryartist #lapidarywork #facetedstone #cutstone #hellhound #mossagate

Behold! Green moss agate. I'm on a roll, and I'm proud of it! I haven't decided if I will be flattening the other side, or adding another table and crown cut. A moss net holds back the fog carrying the.... #art #lapidaryartist #lapidarywork #facetedstone #cutstone #hellhound #mossagate

Behold! Moss agate. It peaks at me, this small orb on a black short poll, tucked behind the moss, its observation is the orange hew in the distance past the thick mossy planes. #art #lapidaryartist #lapidarywork #facetedstone #cutstone #hellhound #mossagate

Behold! A mystical stone I faceted last year, now set in a stunning amulet! The silver Smith @lucidlusters.bsky.social Did stunning work. #art #lapidaryartist #lapidarywork #facetedstone #cutstone #hellhound #silversmith

Behold! Some star Ruby. One of many projects at work. The moss agate pendant I posted has been a huge pain in the ass to facet a really cool design on the table, but it's making headway.

Work in progress, So no behold just yet 😜

Behold! My partner's father is learning why raps! And they are for sale 😁. Love seeing him dive into the craft Check @squalidglobe.bsky.social For more information.

Behold! This kite cut moss agate! I hope you all enjoy its microcosm. #art #lapidaryartist #lapidarywork #facetedstone #cutstone #hellhound

Work has been intense, however I'm excited to get back to my hobbies! Sending these two stones off to ludic luster to become massive rings baby!!! @lucidlusters.bsky.social

Behold! Moss agate! This one was a tad tricky, and I had to chase the table around too much, but I learned a lot from this piece. Excited to discover what its future home may be. Hope everyone is doing okay during these times. #art #lapidaryartist #lapidarywork #facetedstone #cutstone #hellhound

Behold! Moss agate. This one is super clear in comparison to my other pieces, it has wonderful patterns and some separation shards that add reflective features. And it's for sale! More to come, been stuck at work as of late... #art #lapidaryartist #lapidarywork #facetedstone #cutstone #hellhound

Moss agates update 3 are just about done, and 2 are on pause, after their crowning they revealed they would produce 2 additional stones if cut in half, they would be perfect for rings, so they are waiting for my trim saw repair to come back. The other 3 will be posted by the end of tomorrow 😁

This cat tryna fight boi ! Just kidding it's trying to sleep... #SanDiegozoo #tiger #sleepy

Rockhounding ? In San Diego! Wild, what a fun little beach, it had a lot of stones that looked like moss agate's, but it also could just be quartzite. Hope everyone's Valentine's day was neat 😘. #rocks #minerals #hell #rockhounding #nature #science

Behold! I carved out some time to finish the amethyst! Let me know what you guys think of its wondrous purple hue's #art #rocks #faceted #gems #minerals #hell #rockhounding #nature #science to #lapidaryartist #lapidarywork #facetedstone #cutstone #hellhound

This Moss agate is blue, and this side view is so cool that I might remount it to be the top. Also, I put a pentagon on the crown of the amethyst, it's dissolving The mounting glue right now but I'll show it off tomorrow. I hope everybody's having a wonderful work week !

Ye , I think it's time to recut the crown 😆. The pavilion turned out so much better than the original rough shape that I tried to keep. Time to re mount this beauty. #art #rocks #faceted #gems #minerals #hell #rockhounding #nature #science #lapidaryartist #lapidarywork #facetedstone #cutstone

Dis pavilion dough! #art #rocks #faceted #gems #minerals #hell #rockhounding #nature #science to #lapidaryartist #lapidarywork #facetedstone #cutstone #hellhound Crown shot tomorrow 😘

Thank you to all who have followed! Super excited to grow and be a part of this community. I'm excited to reach and collaborate with a lot of other artists as well 😁. And thank you to all who just enjoy seeing the art that takes place on these old rocks.

Here is a Botswana agate, plan is to rework it at some point. Work has been busy so I have not had time to spend on my love for rocks, but soon I will ! Hope everyone's doing well and hanging in there. Remember, accountability is sexy!

Behold! The additional Moss agate! For my smiths in contact, keep an eye out, these will all be available for sale or trade over the next few weeks, I will post each one as they finish! If any collectors out there are interested in getting their hands on any of my stones, please dm me. #mossagate

Some wanted and unwanted specimens this weekend. While scrying the wash for agates, I found a rattlesnake as well, I kept my distance as he retreated into this bush, I then left after taking a picture, going to be honest, I was confident it was too cold out for them, they were very slow moving.

Some call it jasper hill. I loved exploring this mountain, I was only able to look around it's south facing side, and I found a lot of formations and mineral veins, definitely will be going back soon to gather more. #hounding #jasper #mountain #rockhounding #subaru #outback #onyxXT #jasperhill

Biased on my current understanding, this is a black agate. A lot of the host material was very soft, things changed abruptly when I hit the darker sections of the stone. If you know what stone this is, feel free to comment! It was found near jawbone and Red Rock CA. #art #rocks #faceted #gems

Made some progress on the shapes concept, looks like something is coming together. Hope everyone's work week has been survivable. Feel safe and free to let me know how things are going ☺️. #art #rocks #faceted #gems #minerals #hell #rockhounding #nature #science #mathematics #lapidary

This tiny moonstone, turned out well. Goal is to dile in on some smaller stones for rings. I found this in spooners cove. #art #rocks #faceted #gems #minerals #hell #rockhounding #nature #science #mathematics #lapidary

Progress was made! , it's time to flip it and work on the other side. Might redo the crown depending on how the pavilion turns out. Very much going for chaos this time. #art #rocks #faceted #gems #minerals #chaos

Sneek peak, the finished product might be tonight's post, or tomorrow nights post. Goal is an amazing amethyst cut fit for a ring !

I made beef bourguignon. And I made a loaf of gluten-free white bread And I also learned why most people don't answer their DMs, I now have three graphics designers named Dave that wish to draw things for me ...
