Beautiful pieces! I'm a huge fan of malachite and opal, but I think I have to agree that the dino bone is my favorite! Lovely!

Well to make them using what I have if you buy the stuff new you will be out a minimum of $15,000. If you just buy the machine new that i carve these on its $1500 + a saw. But they are all hand made.

These are only a handful of the things ive made. Ive got a lot more on my website :) Everything I make for folks or make to sell goes towards my house which i'm hoping to get in a year or so.. I'm really hoping to have a full time livable wage job so i can not worry too much, but until then i'm doing whatever i can ;) Especially seeing how I work 1 month just for the government (taxes)!

Is there a way to smooth out the edges of the holes that are drilled through the stones? Those are the only areas I see for improvement of these beautiful pieces. Should help you get top dollar, as well as help keep the stones from breaking in this area, if selling them is your aim.

Going to have to check out your website!

I'm drilling them before i get too far into making them now. It will be easier in the long run as well as take care of that issie. Although in person its not as noticeable.
