Marina Del Rey

Marina Del Rey

Posted by WireAndBeadsCreations on 8/11/2007
Yesterday I was in the car running an errand and I turned on the radio, and this "oldie but goodie" song came on... "Living in Marina Del Rey" - I had not heard that song for a few decades now, and I used to love it so much.
I've never been to Marina Del Rey, but I sure have dreamed about it, and when I was looking at a few dichroic glass cabs that I have, thinking of my next jewelry project, I saw the ocean and a sunset in all its glory in this cabochon - thinking of sitting by the waterfront in Marina Del Rey :)

So, this ring was created in honor of a beautiful song and a beautiful place... filled with great people!

I have created this ring by hand wrapping some 14k Gold Filled wire and setting this cabochon center-stage! The colors are truly fantastic, and if you gaze into this ring, it will transport you to a magical world, one filled with colors, sparkle and perhaps even to Marina Del Rey!

This freeform (almost round) cabochon is set with Jewelry Cement, then held further by the 14kt Gold Filled wires prongs all around.

Size of cabochon: 3/4" diameter

Size of ring: US & Canada Size 7 / Britain Size "O"

Note: I can make it slightly smaller, if you need, by wrapping half-round 14kt Gold Filled wire around the 4 strands of wire-shank.

Design and technique learned from Patricia Johnson.
