Description: Wire weaving is a great way to capture cabochons of any size. In this class you will have a choice large or small cabochon. With a larger stone you can add more movement and detail with the wire. A smaller stone is more minimalistic with the curvatures in the woven bezel that has gentle curves. There will be a little bit of torch work in class including fusing, but instructions will be shared on how to modify the ring without fusing.
Materials included in price: Argentium wire, briolette gemstone, bobbin.
