YOJ 2007 Week 33 Turquoise Netted Pendant
Ahhhh, I was so happy that I had managed to catch with the YOJ, now I'm back to being late again. Oh well, you know what they say... better late...This one is another netted bezel pendant, made around this fabulously clear irregular turquoise cabochon which I recently picked up from one of my favorite local suppliers, Sunlightgems. I'm getting ready to receive an enormous batch of tumbled stones from my dad's tumbler... can't wait. I'll be netting away! For more pictures of this pendant AND the tutorial, click here: Net Bezel Pendant Tutorial.
This tutorial is good as is, AND will also be the FIRST part of a DOUBLE lesson. The SECOND part will show how to add ornamental elements around the pendant, like the Aqua Nugget Pendant and the Abalone pendant. It was just too much, too large, to add everything in one single tutorial. The download of this one alone is a hefty 1.79mb, about 40 seconds in a fast connection.

Eni you busy bee! i admire you as always but i have to say that this pendant is just lovely!!!!!! xooxxo
Eni! You are the most busy bee I know! And pendant is just STUNNING! xoxo
I like that! And gold with turquoise works nicely - I always use silver and you tend to think that silver is the only metal colour that 'goes' - but clearly not!
I've got a stash of great, irregular cabs that I've collected over the years but didn't want to wire-work in a more conventional way, and my beaded cabochon-wrapping is terrible! I'll definitely order this one and the one following it - any chance on an ETA for that second part?

This is so elegant and stylish - I will have to have another go at this technique again, my first attempts weren't very inspiring! Gorgeous piece.
