  • No-solder Riveted Bail Gemstone Donut Necklace DIY PDF Digital Tutorial

    $9.95

    This necklace is a simple and striking way to display a large gemstone
    donut. Using only “cold connections” like rivets, staple and
    crimps we will make a unique sterling silver two-piece riveted bail,
    with a hand stamped design.
    The silver bail can be customized by using different stamps or texture
    hammers on the metal. Changing the shape of the cutouts
    along the edge for other shapes as triangles or ovals, can also make
    each pendant unique.
