    Noel, Thanks for showing us to the Marne Ryan site. I love her work.
    Remember Carrie Adel? She made these wonderful stone shapes out of
    what would seem to me to be the fusing of silver with gold also.
    When I've attempted to fuse 18 or 22k onto sterling the gold stays
    in the shape it started with but I'd like to achieve the organic
    look Marne and Carrie have done. Maybe I haven't stayed with it long
    enough to melt the gold to pool more. I'm afraid of it melding into
    the silver and  having it disappear. Can you advise me?     Annette
