Dinosaur Bone Pendant

I don't know about you, but the idea of dinosaurs roaming the earth is fascinating. The bone was found in Colorado and lapidary artist Larry Strickert of Eagle Lapidary cut the fossil into a lovely cabochon. That cab found its way my hands and a pendant was created. I thought mixing smooth and hammered textures in the metal really complimented the matrix within the bone. For me it gives the feeling of the past and present.
