Beads
[caption id="attachment_547" align="aligncenter" width="300"] Freshly turned beads[/caption] In between bouts with the Minion Richard's been making some beads. The latest are brass and bronze. While I took pictures of the process he was giving me instructions on how to make them. It seems I will be doing these in the not too distant future. I'm beginning to think I should stop going into his shop.

[caption id="attachment_554" align="alignleft" width="300"] Brass[/caption] [caption id="attachment_555" align="aligncenter" width="168"] Bronze[/caption] The price will be $25 per bead.
Any copper in the pipeline??
Yep, that’s the plan. When exactly, don’t really know at this point.
1 top right
I’ll take the bronze one top right if available. If I’m going bout buying one wrong someone clue me in.
Thanks
That one has sold, the two bronze still available are the middle left and the bottom right. Brass available are the top two and the left bottom. If you email me at r.s.rogersknives@gmail.com I can handle it easier. Thanks for your interest in Richard’s work.
