PLEASE READ!!!
At the Tucson gem show one of my cases got stolen. The case itself was double sided (see picture) with number locks on both sides. It was covered in stickers, including a Pnuma Trio, Signal Path, and a Volcano sticker. Both sides were lined in purple velvet fabric. There were multiple crystals inside, including 2 large aquamarines, a piece of moldavite, and a tektite (very dear to me) that is wrapped in a peyote stitch. I have reason to believe whoever may have stolen this case is going to try and sell some of these crystals at the gem show. PLEASE, if any of you see someone with a case of this description, step on their shoes and take the case. I can be contacted at (206) 399-2699. Thank you all so much in advance, hopefully someone out there will find this case.

first pipe of cowboy's i have wraped, and there will be more in the future. i couldn't be happier with how this came out. these pics don't do the glass justice. everything that looks dark is actually worked. and the round part near the top of the wrap has a wig-wag stamp that can't be seen without decent light. the glass is the work of my friend cowboy, whose gallery you can view by searching his name on art glass pipes. the wrap has in it the following: moldavite (czech), etched spessartine garnet (minas gerais, brazil), herkimer (new york), tanzanite (tanzania), aqua, emerald (columbia), torumaline x2 (light green and dark green on back), and rhodonite (langban, sweden), and hematite beads x10. something special for the right person.

so this was given to me to wrap by this old lady at a store in boise, id, who tried to tell me i didn't know much, untill i showed her what i did. there was a small time in which i put serious thought into never calling her back, and keeping it, due to the fact that it is the sickest fucking tourmaline chunk i have seen in many a moon. i believe it is from brazil, and will get more info. like, 6 to 7 colors, and it's a watermelon. also with 14k gold beads. it is for sale at perpetual metals in boise, id.

a couple more. i'm into these aqua pencil hat pins.all with fine and sterling silver with hematite beads.
-the first one is just that, with a paki aqua. what's neat is the beads reflect through the crystal and it gives a neat optical effect.
-the second has a tourmaline from Afghanistan.
