Can anyone please advise if it's possible to bend D wire in a horizontal plane?
I have been happily making gold stud earrings which have a mabe-style pearl glued onto a flat disc which has a 1mm square wire false 'bezel'. I now have a commission to make similar earrings, but to have the bezel curved, rather than square. This could be achieved by using D wire, but made into a ring that sits with its flat edge on the disc, rather than its pointy curved edge (like a wedding ring): imagine slicing a bagel in half horizontally (oops, food again!) and I hope you see what I mean!
Can this be done? Will D wire bend this way?
