Grown from a quarter inch nub, probably 2 years so far. Encrusted forever, and has taken off just in the last 6 months.

Dang looking good Scott - love that one - picked up a piece from Blevins a while back I had going before the crash. Great color contrast

Sadly no - it is on the lost list. Always seems that the favorites are the ones we loose in those instances.

I love these classic acros. Any chance that the RR rainbow loom is the same coral?
