Two pendants and a BfB

[AlanZ]

It's been a while since I've posted photos of new pieces, so here are a few.

First up, two pendants... a collaboration with my bride, she did the beadwork.

• This is the first time we're working with African Blackwood... very nice stuff.
• The bluish stone is Labradorite... it has an opalescent quality.
• The greenish stone is jasper.

Then another first for me... a bowl from a board.

• The board was an 8x8x3/4" padauk.
• The feature ring is segmented combining padauk and walnut.

When I get a few moments, I'll post some bowl-from-board progress photos. To minimize seams, I cut the rings on a scroll saw. I enjoyed the project.

Very nice, Alan. The color selection for the pendants is awesome. You did well with the bowl also. Keep it up.

Absolutely beautiful and great idea! Love the bowl. I am getting envious of the great pens, bowls, pendants and other things posted on this site and can't wait until I can get my lathe working again!

Thanks for posting these and a great photo job too!
