Gem Among the Thorns

Its durian season again in Sarawak and you can see this King of Fruits all over the City...ok a bit exagerating here but they are definitely in season.
Hubby bought some back this afternoon and I took the opportunity to snap picture of this newly completed cuff on top of one of this thorny fruit.

cuff is wire wrapped with various gemstones, pearls and Czech beads

This cuff is wrapped with various gemstones, pearls and Czech beads. It is not as easy as it looks especially on the part of shaping the wires to fit the stones and making sure that the measurement would not be more than 7 inches. It is still beautiful though especially for those who love lively and fresh colors.
Happy weekend all.

  2. :) Heather, people say it taste like heaven, smells like shit.
    I can't think of anything to compare. Its an acquired taste like what people say about caviar. You just have to try it to like it.

  6. Hi Kokopelli! Welcome back.
    I hope it is not my blog layout that is causing the problem...hmmm Makes me wonder what is happening? Someone also mention that whenever she visits my blog, an error occur and she can't view my blog. She use Internet Explorer. However, after a few days when I checked back with her, she said all is well.
    Wonder! wonder!
    Anyone out there having problem viewing my blog?
