This jewel is not complicated to make. Follow the steps below to make this elegant and delicate piece of jewelry. Start by mounting the 7 Amazonite pearls on the ball-head nails. Form curls of normal size. Neither too small nor too large. Use the round-ended pliers to create round, even curls. Make sure they're tightly closed. Now cut a nugget chain about 38cm long and fold it in 2 so that you can see the center of the chain, which should fall onto a ring (which connects the nuggets). On this ring, connect 5 Garnet mounted beads with a 4mm ring. On each side, in symmetry, mount 2 clusters of 5 Garnet beads on 4mm rings, mounted on the chain's link rings. Let's move on to stringing mother-of-pearl beads... Cut a nylon thread about 50cm long. String a moon pearl, a gold pearl and an Amazonite pearl (nail). String a gold bead, then an Amazonite bead. Continue in this way to place the 7 Amazonite beads interspersed with gold beads. Finish with a moon pearl. This is the central threading assembly. On each side, place an oval mother-of-pearl bead, then thread the small, irregular mother-of-pearl beads in symmetry. Continue threading to a length of approx. 40cm. Assembling and fitting the clasp... Now take a crush pearl and thread it onto the nylon thread. Thread the wire through a ring on the multi-strand connector, paying attention to the direction. The chain will be at the top and the bead threading at the bottom. Pass the thread back through the bead to be crushed. Using flat-nose pliers, bring the bead to be crushed to the edge of the multi-strand ring, then flatten it. Tuck the excess nylon thread into 3 mother-of-pearl beads, then trim the excess flush. This will prevent the thread from scratching the neck! For the other side, thread a crush bead, pass through the ring symmetrically (in the right direction) then pass back through the crush bead and 3 mother-of-pearl beads. Position the threading flat and in a curved shape (as when it will be worn) to maintain flexibility between beads. Pull on the thread to gently bring the beads to the edge of the ring. Flatten the bead to be crushed, then cut off the excess wire . Now connect the chain to the multi-row connectors with 3mm rings. Finally, connect the clasp on one side and 4cm of extension chain on the other with a 3mm ring. Your jewel is finished! Beautiful creation! |
