About this design:
Recently purchased a small strand of citrine brios at a very reasonable price. However, I really needed to use my finest brio wire wrapping skills to get these tiny babies attached with 26 gauge sterling.
Components:
sterling silver, citrine brios, garnets, labradoritesRead the comments (or add your own)

puppychick labratbecky says:I thought I commented yesterday… maybe I was so in awe I forgot to click submit!
Your wirework is amazing! I love them both but i think I would choose the one with labradorite if I had to pick. I can just imagine the citrine picking up the yellow essence of the labs.

Fresh Baked says:Thanks so much for your comments. When you have very simple designs, things like the wire wrappings become a very noticeable part of the piece, so I was nervously trying to get these up to snuff.
