FULL VIEW PLEASE IT IS A LARGE PICTURE LOTS OF DETAIL
The second View Of my WIP jewled staff I got a lot of response for the first WIP and I thought before I put the wire on that I would give you all a gander.
On to the list of stones that currently call this staff home
Home tumbled Natural Emerald (and lots of it He brought me a good 3000 carats of different sized raw natural emerald to work with)
Adventurine
Labdorite
Malichite
Peritot
Green Flourite
Jade (I found some very light colored and it works perfect here)
Moss jasper 3mm rounds ( so far theres only like 4 of them on here)
and one shattered round in grey and earthly tones I am unsure as to the type of stone).


Now as you can see the Large Quartz in on the top of the staff and wrapped in sinew with spirals down the staff to where a dreamcatcher hangs.
The origional design included light an ddark colored green wire that would look like a vine with a few leaves and some springy coils and a bunch of grapes possibly hanging off of it. I am currently awaiting the owner of the staff to approve of the work thus far but lately he works a lot so I've been doing what I can.

Please let me know what you think.

This is really cool. Personally, I wouldn't want a staff like that. I'm working on one of my own. It's made from a sapling that got trampled by a storm and was snapped at it's base. My husband took all the twigs and stuff off. I sanded it down and I'm hoping to start carving it out soon. The reason that I personally don't much care for this piece overall is that it looks kinda gaudy. I'm more for simplified. But looking at it from outside myself, it looks amazing.

If you see it from a distance some of the stones you can barely see I took closeups mostly because I wanted to show the detail If i can get a better picture of the full view I will do so

I think I'd like this better without the point or the dreamcatcher and just with the green stones you've got wrapping around. Because that part is subtle and rather stunning :D

thank you the owner is planning on taking it to the ren faire in this area he had wanted the dreamcatcher but I don't really think it works well but oh well
