I was on vacation in California a couple weeks ago. We visited Crystal Cove, a beach near Laguna Beach. I've been thinking of the coast, and tidal pools teaming with life, particularly the beautiful anenomes with their delicate tendrils weaving with the waves - so this is the inspiration behind this jewel. Hope you enjoy.

Beautifull... I love the colors ( I like opals) and I like the one gold tendril that connects them in the middle.

It is a splendour piece. Very separate. You haste would become jealous
at your superb work. And want that I can make it also.
Shining!

Very Beautiful, the jewels remind me of opals. I like your description of the origin of your creation as well. I went to Laguna Beach once, many many years ago.

Yup, I'm out of superlatives too. Just another magnificant creation by Nathan.
As bfrank's wife said..."looks like jewelry".

Told ya before..you should be submitting some of your designs to be created INTO jewelery.

Great Stuff Nathan

This reminds me of the opals we saw in Australia, not the "Milk Opals " you see here in the States. Bold, fiery in color & very beautiful. An outstanding job !

Hi Daddy, I love this one. I think my favorite gem is opals. You remember that set you gave mom? The one where the opals are set into flowers on the ring and necklace? I think that was what started it. :) Love ya.
