This is one of the best pieces I believe I have ever made. It turned out amazing.

I started out with five 20 gauge base wires and 1 26 gauge weaving wire.  I added peach seed beads along the top of the first wire.

I wrapped the weave around the stone and secured the stone in the setting by attaching two of the base wires across the back of the stone.

 Next I did a figure eight weave around four of the base wires to create a bail.  I pulled those bail wires around the front. On side one I did a two two weave and used it to circle the bail.

 After circling the bail, I took the wires down and created curls in front on the right side.  On the left, I did an alternating 3x4 and a 2x4 weave to create a fluid swoosh down the side.
