Our
all-time favourite place to buy gorgeous high quality
freeform designer cabochons. Bob Bleily has been cutting
cabochons for millions of years and has a knack for
cutting them just the way we jewellery artists love.
Cut from quality materials, Bob creates cabochons
so beautiful and highly polished it's enough to make
your mother weep. Picasso cabochons depicting trees
& lightening strikes,... awesome!.
<< Please note, this website
is currently undergoing some changes so you might
find some pages don't display yet. However, the Peanut
Cabochons are back up and available again for purchase
and for anything else, we find a quick email telling
them what we need establishes a friendly professional
dialog and ends with cabochons far superior in quality
than I have purchased anywhere else in the past. |
