Hello,
I'm Mark Anderson and have been cutting rocks and creating jewelry for a little over ten years now. One of my favorite materials to work with is gem dinosaur bone. I'm the owner of Different Seasons Jewelry and we make a wide range of jewelry and rock related things.

Boy, i have been missing out not knowing about you and your work. Whoa! I pride myself in having seen most of the cool stone out there, but you have some gem dino bone that i have never seen the likes of. You do incredible work. I love the flush mounted dino bone rings, i would wear one of those in a second. Maybe my wife will see this and get me one for Christmas, well, maybe next year. So cool. I am going to reconsider dino bone after this. I actually found a chunk in a box the other day and started slabbing it. It was a decent piece that i must have gotten when i first got into rocks. I will have to cab some one of these days.
Mark

Thanks everyone for the support and compliments. I'm still learning about this stuff and most likely will never stop:) I hope to improve as time goes on and I gain more experience. I've done a lot of self teaching from books and that isn't always the easiest way to learn. My current struggle is trying to polish synthetic sapphire caps, one will go on some meteorite and the other on gembone. I'm guessing wood wheels are my solution to killing the orange peel effect I've so successfully accomplished on it:) Alvin you can see some of my work in the links below, hope you like:) http://www.flickr.com/photos/gembonegallery/sets/http://www.flickr.com/photos/jessa1155/sets/ |
