I use heavy gauge sterling silver sheet plates, wires and bezels. To design all my art work. For example to make a bracelet: I would use an 18 gauge plate 2� wide by 5.5� length. Hand stamp designs in the sides and also inside the bracelet. Then shaped it into a cuff/bracelet and set at the bezels in rows and put silver marbles on the edging of the cuff. To give it a nice finish look and feel. The opening edge of the bracelet also has an 8 half round on the edge. So, it will be easy to try on and will not dig into your wrist. That is how I create a beautiful 2� rows of cluster turquoise.
