I have been looking at the cover photo of the book Silver Threads: Making Wire Filigree Jewelry by Jeanne Rhodes-Moen. I have been so inspired by this photo that I have made my own necklace. With my necklace I have used wire only. There is no soldering involved in my wire wrap jewelry. I hope you like my version of this eye candy.
Items used to create this Crown Jewel Necklace:
18 x 13 Alexandrite CZ
6 mm Amethyst bicone beads
4 mm Amethyst bicone beads
3 mm Sterling Silver beads
21 gauge dead soft sterling silver wire
21 gauge half hard sterling silver wire
18 gauge half hard half round sterling silver wire
30 gauge half hard sterling silver wire
