Copper Labradorite Ring
I really like how this one turned out. It has a perfect ring fit and a beautiful labradorite stone.
It's also unusual for me because it has an undrilled stone. I always feel somewhat amazed when I successfully set a cabochon. I never really believe I'll be successful at the the start of the project:)
Mary, I don't know what to say. I'm floored. This is just so stunning and perfect in every way. The cab looks so snug and fitted next to those gorgeous spirals. I think the spirals really make this. They give the whole piece an Aztec look. Really wonderful. :)

Mary, This is beautiful! Love the woven shank and how the weaving extends around the cab. The cab does look snug which is a good thing! Gorgeous stone and a gorgeous ring! Well Done!
What a beauty!! I love it Mary!! Are you selling it or keeping it? One day you should write your book...I know you'll laugh because I have said it so many times. But someone as creative as you, with zillions of pretty designs in her mind can easily write a book.
Mary, this is a wonderful ring, perfect made, can you think to make a tutorial for it? I would buy, it is great, may I ask you: is the stone drilled? well done as always!!
I wanted to thank you for this great read!! I definitely enjoying every little bit of it I have bookmarked you to check out new stuff you post. Also visit: Labradorite ring .
My name is Mary. My daughter has recently moved on to college leaving me footloose and fancy free. This affords me more time to pursue my own goals:)
I have always made things since I was a young girl, I loved needlepoint and embroidery in my youth. I tried my hand at many crafts over my life but I have always stuck with jewelry and beads.
When I discovered wire wrapping I knew I had found what I was looking for all my life!
I work in engineering designing mechanical parts, though currently I manage mechanical aspects of PC Boards specifically.
I dream of one day wire wrapping full time.

ReplyDeleteSwati, I would love to write a book. but I hear it is a lot of work and doesn't pay well:((

ReplyDeletewell done as always!!
Thank you very much Mawe! I will think about a tutorial. This stone is not drilled, this style works best with a flat back cabochon.
