Thought I'd post a few step by step pics of my latest project. I haven't had much time to put into engraving lately as I've had my head in jewelry bench. I did do a bit of engraving on the rear of this pendant though it's very tiny. Those are 2.5mm dias.
Keep me in your prayers this weekend guys since I'll be squeezing this rather large and expensive emerald into it's bezel this weekend. Very scary this one.
These are the main parts for the pendant. The bezel gets soldered to the larger plate and will be surrounded by pave set dias. The small engraved plate will be the lower part of the gallery on the rear. One of my early teachers used to say the back should look as good as the front.
I'll post pics of the finished product by Monday. (provided all goes well) Wish me luck!!
