      Vortex in  silver

    "The Vortex" (2" by 1 ½")
    Shown in sterling silver.

       This tenacious specimen was found growing in an inch wide crack in a rock slab which gave it its distinctive "pinched" configuration.
       The cast captured a conical flower bud bursting from the tufts in the center of the plant. In another day this bud opened into the vivid pink flower typical of peyote.
