Reminds me of those pet rocks I had as a kid with the little metal claw setting as the feet, and the googly eyes on top. MOP and/or black jade would look much nicer - have you got a dremel or similar ? (I recall you've done some inlay work that you posted earlier in thread?) Actually the pearl shell would look pretty sweet for the tail too with the iridescence... That's a great piece of stone - how about you just send that pebble to me, and I'll "take care of it" for you! :wink:
