A pumpkin in blue chalcedony at 1.7 inches — small enough to close a hand around.
Chalcedony is quartz grown too finely to show any grain, so it takes a waxy lustre rather than a glassy one and light travels a few millimetres into the surface before it stops. The pale blue reads deeper wherever the stone is thickest and washes out over thin edges, which is why the form changes as you turn it against a window.
Worked in the round from a single block, with the form chosen to suit what that block could give rather than imposed on it.
