- Silver Spiral Ring With Czech Crystal
As I have already mentioned I have been experimenting a lot with coiled silver wire, trying to create different and unique styles of jewellery. My latest efforts involve incorporating Czech glass crystal and glass pearls. I love the differing colours of Czech glass and try to combine them to make exciting colour combinations.
For the ring pictured on the left I used 0.8mm silver wire and coiled it to make the band. Using the same width of wire I attached several Czech glass crystal beads and glass pearls. I wiil be teaching the spiral technique when my new workshop/school opens in La Marina, Alicante on the 1st of June. Other courses available will be jewellery making with polymer clay, silver wire, art clay silver and bronze clay, dichroic glass and beading. For more information I can be contacted via the website
