Jewelry Making: Wire-Wrapped Pendant
Want to save $150 on wrapped pendant ? It's real, just watch this video.
I have to say, this video is the most entertaining jewelry making video on WEB!
The wire used in show is gold-filled wire with a thickness of gauge 20. You can use the basic technique in this video as long as the rock is flat. If it is spherical then try to build a cage embracing the stone with 3 or more artistically bent wire columns and possibly 2 bales (one on each side) for an east to west presentation. At that point the pendant is structurally round and you are left (hopefully) with extra wire that you literally can do anything with. The goal is to embellish, most commonly twisting the wire to resemble vines.
The pendant wrapping are a great idea, right?
