Welcome readers and friends of #Hive, thank you for appreciating the craftsmanship. This time I want to show you a piece of handmade jewelry which is a heart shaped necklace charm with a faceted ruby made in stainless steel and red enameled copper, also a piece similar to an arrow with a faceted citrine quartz, which I made before the heart charm but I didn't take many pictures of the process, I hope you enjoy this new post!

Fabricación
Manufacturing
✅Step 1: First I made a small crimp-type structure with the steel wire for the ruby that would allow me to fix it so that it would not move in any way since it is the protagonist of this piece.
✅Step 2: With the steel wire I made a heart shape, shaping it with my round nose pliers, trying to make it as symmetrical as possible, although the first heart shape I made did not convince me at all because it would be uncomfortable when making the filigree in the structure or weaving it.
✅ step 3: after changing the heart design as shown in the picture mount the ruby with the 4 wires left at the ends to the arrow-shaped wire figure to join the parts and start making the Filigree with the copper wire.
✅Step 4: At this point I had already finished making the pendant but I had a problem and the photos of the weaving process were not saved, but in summary I made the weaving through the structure with the red wire, I made some ornaments on the front like small spirals cut the bottom of the heart, and added for the back two cob type weavings to give more shape to the heart.

The following piece was the first one I made in this style before the heart and here I show you a very brief summary of the process.
I made the same in stainless steel but this time with enameled golden copper and a faceted citrine quartz.
