It's part of a whale vertebra. Great color and interesting texture, but after I was posing it and trying to find its best angle, I realized that my hands stunk to high heavens. I'm hoping that the fishy smell will disippate a bit after it's been sitting out on the picnic table in the sun and fresh air. I'm also hoping that the dogs won't decide that it's a very big treat for them and get sick on it.
So here are some pairs of earrings that got photographed far away from the stinky whale vertebra.
Notice please how minimalist these last two are. Some people think I have no self control and don't know when to stop adding dangly things.
Sometimes when I'm doing an Ice Resin pour, I do not know when to stop. I overfilled two of those lovely rectangular bronze bezels from Susan Lenart Kazmer and couldn't figure out how to get the excess off. I have trouble keeping my grubby little hands off the resin while it's setting (three days? You've got to be kidding me), so I hid them from myself and by the time I saw what had happened, they were already set up and hardened. So since I can't sell them like they are, I made them into necklaces for me. And since they're meant only for me, I blatantly ripped off a design by the amazing Dawn Wilson-Enoch.

That whale piece is so cool! I'm really hoping you can indeed get the stink out and use it soon. Best of luck!!
Beautiful danglies and minimals both. Whale bone is quite the find. Awesome treasure.
Loving your new earrings, I'm partial to the super dangley ones myself! The whale vertebrae is fabulous, hope it loses it's 'aroma' so you can use it to photograph your lovely jewelry.
