This turned out very cool! Nice lapis beads, with 14k gold beads/wire, and kyanite.

That looks neat. I''m curious about the comfort of wearing the necklace as I''ve never worn anything like that before. Do you get poked by the kyanite at all?

Very unique! Is this wire wrapped like the coral/spiney necklace or strung?

These are linked with 14k gold wire. Each link is a lapis bead, with 6 kyanite. The links are then woven using the 14k gold wire.

OK thanks! I''m just learning how to wire wrap, so your projects look very interesting to me. TFS

Trouble is: gold wire acts like no other metal lol! So practice is expensive!
