Catherine Pendant

Picture
Picture
This gorgeous pendant is open to your own interpretation. Here I have tried to assimilate the movement of the Catherine Wheel firework, with the sparks being represented by sparkling crystals around the edges and the beautiful shimmering rivoli centre. You may also see it as the familiar pinwheel design seen so often on cut glass and crystal. Some have said it reminds them of sea urchins too.  
This tutorial will show how to make a simple netted bezel to capture the rivoli, and use three colours of SuperDuo beads and crystal beads to embellish, using detailed diagrams and clear step-by-step instructions.
