Graham cave
« on: August 24, 2013, 05:27:32 pm »
Picked up this piece recently with the healed over scar in the rock and wanted to make something that showed off the 2 tone effect. I went with the graham cave since its a local point and fit the shape of my preform. It had a real crusty spot in the tip I was able to work through and the rest was relatively easy.

Odd how the color changes right there. Worked out beautifully!
