Bezel set wire wrapped cabochon

Thank you. Terrific explanation. Cant wait ti start with wire. Your voice is also so pleasant.

I've said it before and i'll say it again, you're awesome at what you do! I appreciate you taking the time to make these videos and show the techniques. Amazing job!

I absolutely love the way you make your videos. You have taken the time to carefully explain in complete detail exactly how to do each type of wrapping technique. It makes it easier to understand just how to do each technique and what to expect to occur if I did something wrong. Thank you so very much. This helps me learn more about what I am doing wrong while I am designing a piece.

I just wanted to thank you because I checked out about 20 books for wire weaving from the library, but it is nowhere nearly as helpful as watching these videos. I just finished my first wire weave with some fused glass that I made and it looks incredible. There's no way I could have done it with just the books, so thank you!

Your voice and accent are so calm and encouraging. You also share practical methods on keeping even spacing and tension, which is where I have difficulty. Well done.

I simply love watching your very inspiring tutorial and hearing your soft soothing voice. I have learned a lot from you. Thank you so much for sharing your art with the world.

I love how you use the smaller gauge wire to secure the bail vs. The way I've been doing it with larger wire and creating WAY too much bulk around the bail. Great technique for, like you said, when you have a cabochon that you don't want to cover with too much wire work. Thank you so much for your tutorials. I learn so much!

Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have polished many stones then just store them in boxes - afraid to go to the next step - making jewelry. Your teaching style is just right for me - slow and easy and I will enjoy more of your teaching - Again, thanks much!

Following the advice you gave at 21:00 regarding "guiding" the wire as opposed to "pulling" was the absolute best tip ever! 👍 It really helped me to maintain a consistently sized bezel weave. My weaving wire wasn't on a spool and I broke it half way through, and I didn't allow enough to weave the bale but I think it's going to be ok as long as it never comes apart. I'd feel better if I had been able to weave without piecing it together but I wasn't going to start over when I seemed to be doing so well. LOL! 😄 But even with rubber tips, my clamp had a very tight grip and scratched the base wire. This is where your tip really paid off for me because it allowed me to weave without the clamp. Now I'm finished wrapping my White Buffalo Stone except for weaving the bale. Thank you sooooooo much! You're a rock star!

Thank you so much for this tutorial!! I was looking for a birthday gift for a co-worker and she had mentioned wanting one of my wrapped crystals. With my intent in mind a beautiful rectangular piece of raw amethyst said it wanted to go to her. Completely clueless on how I was going to wrap it I snatched it up. Without you I'd still be twiddling my (insanely sore) thumbs trying to think of how to do it. You've made my day with your perfect explanation and thorough walk through. Thank you thank you thank you!!

I don't do jewelry, but I ran across your video, I really enjoyed just watching you work, and you have a beautiful eye for designing. thank you so much. I will be back for more.

Thank you so much for this tutorial. You explain and demonstrate everything so well. It was a pleasure!

i did this with 1mm ironwire and 0,5 brasswire and wrapped a dragoneye that I made and it looks soo great! thank you a million times for this tutorial!!

Fantastic tutorial! I wrapped a piece of amazonite that was semi-flat but not cab cut. My wires did bend a tad along the way, but it came out quite lovely once I fit the bezel to the stone. THANK YOU for sharing these. A very relaxing and rewarding process. Next up is a slice of fossilized coral! I also really love how secure this keeps the stone.

This is exactly what I needed, I hated covering up the agate bands.

WOW this is by far the best wire wrapping tutorial I've ever watched. Thank you so much for the time taken to make this. You're a star!!

Thank you so much for your tutorials. It is so clear and at the right pace. You are so thorough in explaining every step and the reasons for it that it is an absolute pleasure watching it. Much appreciated!

I love watching your work......you do such a fantastic job of explaining each step!!  and your stuff is AMAZING!!!

THANK YOU! Beautiful--- much needed for lapidary pieces my father made years ago and soooo much easier than creating bezel w// torch and backing and all...not to mention more interesting!

you are 100% my favorite YouTube to learn wire wrapping from!!!!!!
