I didn't know "Cinnabar" meant cheap plastic...

I recently purchased three Sajen pieces, two of them were beautiful, and then there was this one. The silverwork and the garnet were both really nice. It was the Cinnabar Heart that ruined the piece for me. I was picturing a carved stone with at least a slight bit of visual texture. Cinnabar (the mineral) should be very refractive unless it is purposely dulled. This is very, very dull cinnabar. This looked like a very matte wax, something that would be decorative on a candle. It will be pretty enough as long as no one looks too closely at it, but overall, I'm far from thrilled with this piece.
