Sylcraft Gemstones -n- Wire !!
Welcome !
Thanks for visiting !! On this page you will see example of how Gemstones and wire can be combined to make some stunning and unique handcrafted designer jewelry. No solder is used in the process. All depends on the skill of the artist in setting the stones into a piece of jewelry. All pieces are one of a kind. Some can be made to order to look somewhat like what you will see pictured, but most of the time there will be subtle differences just as in any work of art.
In the above ring, you see a Cubic Zirconia Marquise style stone done in a free style wire wrap. These are very eye catching creations and each is different than the next. 14K Gold Filled wire was used in this setting. Gold Fill wire is not a plated wire. There is 100 times more gold in gold filled wire than any kind of plated materials will ever have. This is a lifetime piece of jewelry as should be all the jewelry done in 14K Gold Fill or Sterling Silver. With reasonable care these pieces should be heirloom pieces.

Here you see an Amythyst stone done in 14K Gold Filled wire.
Notice how the wires follow the stones natural color design.
When doing a stone in wire and using this techinic it creates a piece of jewelry that will catch your eye for sure !!
Stones in their natural state are very beautiful. Gemstones of the quartz family such as this Amethyst tend to have wonderful markings. Jewelry made this way from this type of stone is hard to find, at least in our area.
Here is another example of how wire can be used.
This is a chevron cabachon wrapped in Sterling Silver wire.
It is a sculpture design and is a wonderful enhancement to any type of cabachon.
Many items and styles available and all are one of a kind handcrafted designer jewelry as well as handmade bead items...please check the online store at Sylcraft Online Secure Shopping

I have a special newsletter you might enjoy as it tells you what is available on special for the month and I send emails once a month (more or less) to let you know what is on special. This will also let you know what's new on the "SPECIAL DEALS" page in the store. There is no coupon necessary for the Special Deals. The monthly specials requires a coupon code that you will get in the email notice...
AUCTION NOTIFICATION
The Auction Notification is a special newsletter that will tell you what has been added to auctions at Ebay or Just beads. If you like auctions this would be a good newsletter.
