I got a little package of these incredible labradorite cabochons today and I cannot wait to work with them! I have a few set aside for wire wraps and the rest will be used in my next copper jewelry collection. I’m already scheming 😊
Man made crystals are so cool it’s so sad everyone who likes rocks is out for blood if you post man made crystals. I love you opalite I love you lab created opal I love you bismuth I love you HTA citrine I love you goldstone
thinking about weevil photonic crystal structures...
Weevils (such as Pachyrhynchus genera) have evolved epidermal cells that can produce colour through opal-like arrangements of packed spheres, forming a three-dimensional photonic crystalline structure.
