Wire working has been around for centuries and never goes out of style. Wire weaving techniques simply evolve to incorporate the newest materials and trends. This book focuses on the timeless techniques of wire weaving, wrapping, coiling, and capturing, plus texturing metals and wire. Using these evergreen techniques, the author showcases metal, beads, lampworked elements, cabochons, and found objects in interesting, beautiful wire jewelry. Whether they use fine silver wire or copper, jewelry makers will be able to create artistic and unique pieces they'll be proud to wear. Each project includes clear and easy-to-understand and step-by-step instructions from an experienced wire weaving instructor.
