    The tutorial discusses the materials, tools and steps required for making wire wrapped jewelry including pendants. It recommends using copper, nickel silver or sterling silver wire and mentions some hand tools needed like jewelry rollers.

    The tutorial recommends using copper, nickel silver, brass, bronze or sterling silver wire in thicknesses between 0.3mm-1mm. It also mentions that multiple wire types can be combined in one piece.

    The minimum hand tools needed include jewelry rollers. Other tools mentioned are gas burners for shaping balls on wire ends, and toothbrushes for cleaning.

    Introduction

    What do we need for work?

    Wire. I use copper wire in my tutorial. And this does not necessarily mean that you should
    use copper wire. Use any wire. I made similar ornaments from copper wire, wire from
    nickel silver, brass, bronze and sterling silver. In addition, you can combine, use two, three
    types of wires in one decoration.

    The recommendation will be one. Use appropriate wire thickness. In the book, I make
    pendants of wire 1 mm (18 ga) and 0.4 mm (26 ga) thick. You can use wire with a thickness
    of 0.8 mm (20 ga) and 0.3 mm (28 ga)

    Instruments.

    You will need a minimum set of hand tools for the job. I will not go long in details about the
    tools. If you have already tried your hand at working with wire, you should understand
    what you need.

    To complete the work you will need jewelry rollers. If you don’t have your own, you can
    contact your friends, rent them ... In a pinch, you can do without them (I have provided
    such an option).

    Patinate and polish.

    You can use any special solutions for the wire. Check beforehand whether the solution will
    not damage the cabochon made of stone. I advised you to use stones from volcanic rocks
    for a reason. They are much stronger (do not absorb liquid) than stones of sedimentary
    origin.

    For polishing, use grinding machines with felt nozzles. Apply polishing paste

    If your plans did not include patinating and polishing the product - do not do it.

    After polishing the wire, you need to wash the product with a brush in running water and
    soap. Instead of a brush, I use old toothbrushes.

    We need: 6 pieces of wire about 27 cm (11 inches) long and 1 mm thick (18 ga). Thin wire -
    0.4 mm (26 ga). Bead - 20 mm (0.79 inches).

    On one piece of wire you need to make a ball.

    6

    To make a ball we need a gas burner.

    7

    Hold the wire vertically. At the tip of the wire we direct the flame of the burner. Grind the
    copper ball.
