EDOX Bluebird - Automatic

Here is a watch from my collection.

This one is an EDOX Bluebird from the late 1970s.  The dial has a great color and I love the orange second hand.

Yellow Sapphire and 14k Ring

Yellow gold and antique yellow sapphire.

Off-center setting.

The stone's cut, the fact that it is natural and was in a 22k gold setting made on a hob, make me think it was maybe 1820's India.

Reticulation on the band

Hand Rails - Bubinga Wood

These are a work in progress.

Bubinga is native to West Africa and is fun to say. Try it...

These will be handrails for a stairway in my house. 

Shaped down and sanded

Great grain patterns

First coat of oil, to bring the color out.

A lot of color and chatoyance

IOOF Ring in 10k Gold

This is a ring I made, for myself, from a damaged IOOF 50 year member's jewel.

not this one - it is plated.  But you get the idea.

T Rex

This was a scrap piece of stainless steel left over from a manufacturing process.

I added stained glass, a frame and lights.
