A translucent polished gem cabochon for Macro Mondays atop a Ulanzi VL49 Pro RGB LED Light Panel. No, it's not a guitar pick. Actual size: 1.75 inches.

I don't use perfume myself, but I do like old perfume bottles. The one in the foreground in this image is a miniature and dates back to the 1920s. I'm afraid I don't know anything about the one in the background, but it's not very old.

For this week's Looking Close... on Friday group theme, Perfume Bottles.

Taken with Pentacon Auto 50mm f1.8 lens.

This large cab is most of what is left from one half of a plume agate collected on the Walker Ranch in 1994.

I'm not done with this one yet.

Another cab I purchased from Chacon's, and this one has a nice pink fortification area with good depth.

green and yellow flowergarden cabochon, made from an agate I found while collecting in 2007, near the shore of Falcon Lake, in Zapata County, Texas. (gets crazy in the large view!)

I just realized this cab is from a slab cut from the specimen I previously uploaded as:

polymer clay

Flowerstone Cabochon crafted by me at the Port Moody Rock and Gem Club

This is a pair of custom polymer clay cabochons in a style I call "Neptune's Garden". ^^ The blue/green round cab is 1-5/8" in diameter and the marquis shape is 1-7/8" long.

I retained most of the pattern in the freeform cabochon of crazylace, which I finished around midnite!

Five cabochons I created with polymer clay and metallic paint.
