Moonlight, Light, Light...


This is a custom piece that I am working on for a customer.

I am using her moonstone which I re-purposed from a ring that she no longer wears. And as far as moonstones go, this one is quite nice. It isn't the best cut cabochon in the world, but this moonstone has a brilliant rainbow sheen, quite lovely. So, needless to say, I had to do it justice.

Fabricated, etched, and (eventually) set. She gave me full reign over the design, and I have to admit, I am pleased with it so far.

Current Theme Song

"Secrets" by OneRepublic on Waking Up

I need another story
Something to get off my chest

My life gets kinda boring
Need something that I can confess

Till all my sleeves are stained red
from all the truth that I've said

Come by it honestly I swear
Thought you saw me wink, no
I've been on the brink, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away.
