Here is another update of my progress on the clothing of the high priest. I now have engraved all of the stones for breastplate, and have engraved one of the shoulder stones. One left, and then I need to mount them to the fabric and I will be done!

How could I go about using one of these images for a book I'm self-publishing?
ReplyDeleteHow can I obtain one of these Ephod priestly and how much is the cost?
ReplyDeleteHow can I purchase the engraved stones? Cost?
ReplyDeleteThey are not for sale. It was very hard to even get one set (most stonecutters don't want to attempt a project like this) so I have had an extremely hard time even getting the few sets I have. Sorry.
