I started wire wrapping gemstones a few years ago and it's been a passion ever since.  Coming to love the gemstone beads, it seemed natural to look for and work with polished stones and larger examples of the wonderful bounty of beauty nature provides us. I found precision cut cabochons rather difficult to work with, as wire has a mind of it's own sometimes and will go where it will. So I tend to specialise in unusual shapes and forms, especially natural raw crystals. What better way to benefit from their properties?
 

I use .925 Sterling silver wire of different gauges, usually 20-22g, and usually dead soft for flexibility. Making a frame around a stone requires a harder form, half hard, so it will hold it's shape. (See my blog for an article on this.) The gold wire is 14k gold filled, also called 'rolled gold' and is a 14k plating over sterling silver. This wire is absolutely beautiful and will last a lifetime.

I love to wrap unusual shapes, a wonderful challenge. I hope you like my work, it is a pleasure to make! Please contact me if you have a stone you would like wrapped. I also wrap gemstones with Swarovski crystals in the chakra colours. My latest designs incorporate weaving and coiling wire, available from my shop.
