Do you ever wish a filigree was a different shape or size?
It’s easy to transform Vintaj natural brass filigree, simply cut filigree with our Metal Shears and smooth the rough edges with our Metal File. Turn a large filigree into multiple smaller unique jewelry components. Use them to wrap stones and cabochons, suspend as a pendant bail, or incorporate as a decorative connector.
Our NEW 63mm Full Diamond Circle Filigree is awesome
You can use it to wrap around large pendants,as seen below in the Antique Tile necklace…
Or cut it up into smaller pieces, as seen in the Weeping Willow & Willow Pond necklaces…
1. Use Metal Shears to clip through inner opening of filigree, along the double swirls.
2. Continue to cut away the decorative border of filigree to reveal the large diamond shape.
3. Use the Metal File to smooth all rough edges.
4. Clip away the sharp pieces and file the 4 smaller sections.
5. You now have 5 filigree components, 1 large for wrapping and 4 matching pieces!
Willow Pond, features a large Ephemera pendant by Skye Jewels, with 2 of the smaller filigree pieces wrapped around the top front and back of pendant to create a decorative bail.
Weeping Willow, features the center diamond shaped wrapped around a circle Ephemera pendant by Skye Jewels. Smaller sections hang from the bottom and top of pendant to hold beaded dangles and Willow Branch connectors.
Happy Designing!
