Hunted for rocks this weekend @desertgardensrock found a few nice ones. #garygreenjasper from @silverhilllapidary and #succorcreekjasper #crazylaceagate and some other random agates. Pretty cool little tree on the #sonorandendriticrhyolite piece. https://www.instagram.com/p/BsmIJDzgisT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=w6t25xawyxrm

Happy long weekend, friends. We’re taking it easy, making plans and drinking coffee. I’m also swooning over a handful of new stones that I’ve acquired over the last month, including these super high quality smoky quartz pyramids (perfectly clear, and sooo smoky!) and these Sonoran dendritic rhyolite and blue lace agate hearts (from the wonderful @sayasukabone.) I can’t wait to get back into the studio to play with them. But first, more coffee...☕️🤩😴 ... #longweekendvibes #sonorandendriticrhyolite #bluelaceagate #smokyquartz #studioprep #lazysunday #ladysmith #oakville https://www.instagram.com/p/CEzvJTjBxYE/?igshid=14zpbc4wnm021

Almost finished with this next collection. Art Nouveau- botanical inspired series. I have one more polishing wheel to go. Flip through the process pics and videos of a few of them with gorgeous patterning. The second to the last video of the willow creek jasper has some really nice dots of pyrite inclusions. Hard to capture the shine. Final pic of these cabs coming soon. Drawing out the designs next. This will take some time with my crazy schedule. I think there is only 10 weeks of school left.... #crazylaceagate #agate #shattukite #willowcreekjasper #sonorandendriticrhyolite #jasper #lapidary #rachelmpost #rockcutting #rockhound #rocklicker #diamondpacific #variscite #rhodonite #lapidaryartist

The beginnings of my next collection. Freeform geometrics - I am leaning towards an alchemy series focused on stone/earth symbols. I need to do a little research. I will have 8 pieces if all goes as planned. #crazylaceagate #agate #shattukite #chrysoprase #sonorandendriticrhyolite #sodalite #chrysocolla #lapidary #rachelmpost #rockcutting #rockhound #rocklicker

Almost finished with these beauties. Flip through the pics to see the transformation. A few of them need 14,000 grit. The Geometric series is finished. Finally pic of this collection will be posted soon and then off to sketching ideas for the metal work. That itty bitty turquoise is my first cab I cut and polished. Thank you @daves_craves_jewelry for sending me this slab to play with. Success! #lapidary #diamondpacific #turquoise #shattukite #agate #chrysocolla #chrysoprase #sonorandendriticrhyolite #rachelmpost

This is the beginning of my next collection that I am starting this weekend. My curvy cabs that I cut and polished this past Spring for my next series called Botanical. Each stone is packed with incredible colors and patterns. This collection includes #agate #rhodonite #crazylaceagate #shattuckite #variscite #willowcreekjasper #sonorandendriticrhyolite - I am planning to do two rings and the rest in pendants(1 has been spoken for) mainly in Sterling. I am hoping to get this collection finished before I head back to teaching in a couple weeks. 🤞🏼#silversmith #metalsmith #rockhound #lapidary #lapidaryartist #lapidaryart #rachelmpost #diamondpacific #cabochon #cabochons #jewelrymaking #jewelrydesign #jewelry #jewellery #jewelryart #oneofakind #oneofakindjewelry #handmadejewelry #whyiloveminerals #botanical #mineral #minerals #riojeweler
