Thank you! It's made entirely from Sterling Silver Square Wire. The outer circle was formed using a ring mandrel, I soldered it to the straight wire it's hanging from, then I used a triangular needle file to make a score on either side of the tips of the wire & bent the tips to create the 'Steem' - I soldered the scores to get rid of the small gap that was left, then it's all soldered to the outer circle :), filed, sanded down with various grades & polished using a Dremel - felt wheel & Tripoli. It's quite simple once you have a few techniques under your belt! I hope you enjoy silversmithing! It's so fun when you get into it! Let me know if you ever need any help - Although I'm sure your teacher knows better than myself - I just learn by experimenting with it really, also have a few good books!
