Nine faceted natural stone pendants, hung directly from the wide links of a gold diamond link chain. Three stones repeated three times create a luminous rhythm that dances with every movement of your wrist. Quick to assemble, with clean finishes, and endless gemstone combinations.
For a very easy first piece of jewelry, or a gift made in the favorite colors of the person who will receive it.
In the photo, the grey pendants are labradorite, which is temporarily out of stock: metallic-grey hematite takes its place in the cart.
Tools needed: 2 flat-nose pliers, side cutters, tape measure
Three other stone trios, each repeated three times. Each button adds the 9 pendants and all the findings from the tutorial. Under each trio, the intention that lithotherapy traditionally associates with it.
Measure your wrist, keeping the tape snug.
Cut the diamond link chain to your measurement. The clasp and the clasp tag will add the extra ease to the bracelet.
Fold the chain in half to find its center. Open a 5 mm jump ring, slip the center pendant onto it, then hook it onto the center link of the chain. Close the ring.
Skip 3 links, then hook the next pendant onto the 4th link. Continue this way on each side to place all 9 pendants. Here, three stones repeated three times create a visual rhythm. You can also go for a single color, or a chakra-style color gradient.
At one end of the chain, attach the lobster clasp with a 3 mm jump ring. At the other, attach the clasp tag with a second 3 mm jump ring. Your bracelet is finished.
Why the 4th link? On a chain, the links alternate between lying flat and standing on edge. By always keeping the same spacing, you hook each pendant onto a link facing the same way: they all hang in the same direction, facing forward.
