Prison of Enchantment - Gemstone Point Wrap Tutorial
This lesson shows you one way to wrap an un-drilled stone point (though you can use a drilled stone if you like). This particular style gives the finished pendant an old world feel, especially if oxidized. Skill Level: Intermediate Materials: • 13” of 22 ga Round Soft Wire • 11’ of 30 ga Round soft Wire • 1 Stone Point (For this tutorial I am using one that measures 8mm wide and 31mm long – you can use a different, but you will need more or less wire depending on the stone) • 18g Jump Ring (the inside diameter must be large enough to accommodate the thickness of the wire plus the cord or chain you plan to use with the pendant) Tools: • Chain nose pliers • Round nose pliers • Wire cutters • Flat nose pliers © Donna Spadafore, Gailavira Jewelry You may use this tutorial to make jewelry for sale.
