waxes

Some of those opals I have been stumped on how to set them...then I remembered the magic of lost wax casting! I whipped up two waxes, they need a little polishing up but you'll get the idea:

Its a lady, and she is giving me a hand.

And a wave. This one should be nice: the grey inclusions on the opal will look like ocean spray if I can pull it off! I'm excited to clean these up a bit more and cast them.
