Hi, just thought I'd show you my first attempt at a bezel setting. I'm pretty chuffed with how it's come out and while working the bezel wondered if it was actually possible to over work it. Very therapeutic though! (Definitely my entry for the monthly challenge if it's 'trying a new technique'.) Off to do some more setting in a bit.

Also had a play yesterday afternoon and came up with what I call a sterling silver constellation pendant. Just wondered if this is something I should develop a bit further.

Lovely Fi - I've just started bezel setting too - its fiddly isnt it but really rewarding when it goes right!

Love the constellation pendant too - very attractive indeed

Thanks everyone. Really appreciate your encouraging words about my bezel setting. Started my second one last night but then realised that I heated the solder paste too quickly and burnt it :(| so off to the pickle and a bit of filing and starting again tonight!

lovely pendants! I'd like to see constellation earrings too, as they would hang really nicely.
