We create this beautiful art by manipulating a strand of wire around a gemstone. The results must be seen in the picture.
As I am not a geologist, i cannot identify the type of gemstone used, and for this I apologize. Although to be honest I am more worried about how they look and feel than what their names are. :)
The wire is NOT silver, gold or anything else exorbitantly expensive. Just plain ol' wire.
Enjoy!
