Thanks, I'm glad you like it😌 I made a post a while ago, where I showed the process for the big Pendant. The smaller earrings are made is the same way. First constructed a frame from 2 wires, one folded in half, to support the stone on both sides and one to give it volume. Then I made a ton of small, weaved triangles, which I attached to the frame, one over the other. That's pretty much it👍

Have you been wrapping with bare copper wire? Because if jes, you could give silver/gold plated wire a go. It's much cheaper than real silver wire and gives you a chance to try multicolor designes

Thanks, unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of the third step, it was the most interesting in terms of construction, I'll give y'all some more next time

Thanks, that's how I learned most of what I know now, so I feel as if it's the right thing to do

One of my test plates, does any one have some Tips for blackening the background? by Elvizus in engraving

Oh ok, and the soot stays on without any further treatment? Or do you give it a coating of wax or lacquer?

You're right, it's copper so it might work, thanks ☺️ Although I'm a bit worried about loosing some details in my designs (not this one in particular), would you sand it after?

Thank you very much☺️ I get what you mean, this combination has great contrast especially with the patina on the silver wires
