Ten Minute Mabe Earrings Wire Jewelry Making Pattern #108
Ten Minute Mabe Earrings Wire Jewelry Making Pattern #108 More Jewelry Making Patterns at http://wire-sculpture.com/patterns/ NOTE: Mabe pearls come in many different shapes, sizes, and grades. Their wholesale price can range anywhere from $15 to $100 and I have seen many pairs of mabe earrings with a very simple setting that cost over $400. Here is where you enter the real world of jewelry pricing. You not only must consider the price you paid for the mabe pearl but you must also take into consideration the size, the grade, the lustre, the imperfections (if any), the nacre, and its color shadings. Also you should know a little about price comparisons. In other words, what does the same size and same quality mabe sell for down at the mall? Naturally, your earrings made with gold filled wire in the most simple setting going won't fetch the price of some of these higher end mabes but you must realize what is the customer's alternative if they want a pair of nice mabe pearl earrings----You just might have the best deal going! Supplies Needed * 6 inches of 14kt. gold filled 22 gauge square half hard wire or brass practice wire * 2 - 13mm round mabe pearls A Grade, all white * 2 safety earring clutches Tools Needed * Flat nose pliers * Chain nose pliers * Wire cutter or flush cutter * Needle file * E-6000 adhesive Step 1 Select two matching mabe pearls with flat backs. For this project I will be working with 13mm round white mabe pearls Grade A. -

This beautiful and fascinating mineral with its yellow color and metallic luster has the nickname of "Fool's Gold" because it has a history of being mistaken for gold - as it can resemble the physical appearance of gold. The ancient Greek named the mineral from their word "pyr" meaning "of fire". This was because they found that sparks would fly from it if struck against another hard mineral, such as iron. Archaeologists have found that burial mounds in South America often contain chunks of pyrite, perhaps so one would have fire in the next world. Aztec ceremonial masks have also been discovered where the eye sockets had been filled with pyrite along with large, flat, polished pieces of pyrite. Speculation is that these were used as early mirrors by early Aztecs and Incans.
