Finished these yesterday. Can't claim the technique as my own, but I sure like it. 2.5cttw 6mm, genuine ruby. More red than in the photos, my camera does strange things to some colors sometimes. Attachments:

I love it too - any chance you can offer a tutorial on how you wrap those?

Thanks I'd do a tute, but it isn't my design, so I can't. I found this online, but it has since been removed by the author.

Those are beautiful! Wish my RA (Rhuematoid Arthritis) would allow me to work on tiny stuff! Hands are not cooperating. My spelling sucks today!

LOL! Yes, come to think of it.... I did use some tweezers once or twice.
The frames are 20g and the netting is 26g- not too bad, could be worse. I have made some London Blue also and I want to try it smaller. I did a test of a 4mm stone. It can be done.... but do I want to- that's the question! LOL!
