Yeah, that's an exciting and interesting title....

A 12x18mm stone that I wrapped in sterling silver wire for a friend of a friend a few years back. Yet another find in that disused part of my website.

Wow, that's really pretty :)

I bet that Sterling Silver wire cost a fortune :3

Actually it wasn't that bad. Of course I bought the wire several years ago when I had a wholesale license, I have no idea what it would cost me now.
:iconakai-ink:
What a nice, simple, elegant pendant. It's certainly something I would wear on a dainty chain. :#1:

oh, and you don't want to look at silver without a wholesale number right now, i can vouch that it isn't pretty!

I'm really sorry for the delay in replying, I had to take some time away from DA to keep my sanity.

Tips on wire wraps... I actually don't do much of it so I'm probably not the person to ask. I work things out with cheap craft/hobby wire first and make notes if the wrap ends up complex (my notes will have sketches of digital photos attached.)

Other than that there's really no trick to it. Though if you tend to grip the pliers too hard like I do (which leaves marks) it helps to wrap your plier jaws with a bit of moleskin to cushion the wire.

thanks, i do tend to damage the wire a bit, and masking tape didn't help. i'll try a fabric. i must have some moleskin somewhere...

Very pretty. Strong and clean, yet it has a certain feminine touch. Thanks for the fave!

Oh wow, that's lucky :XD:
