Jim K Jordan Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 Very nice! Gotta love Lightning ridge opal. And anything based on the involute curve/ Fibonacci sequence has my vote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael B Posted August 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2017 Thanks Jim, yes the curve is what inspired me to carve this shape, based on a nautilus but with my own twist on the opposite side, I carved a series of cut steps through the potch to reveal the opal.
