Very nice set! And the singles are good too. Like the patterns in that ear ring pendant set. Tony

Very nice groove wrap, in fact I think this is the first finished product I see here since I begun this technique. Congratulations! You could had filed the contour wire to keep it in the cab's shape.

The wrap is great and the pattern in the stones are really pretty. My only suggestion, if you have more of the same stone, would be to replace the one on the earring on the right with a larger stone to make more of a match to the one on the left or grind the left one down to match the size of the right one.
Earrings can be a pain in the butt. I hope you don't mind the suggestion.

Nice! That certainly came out better than my one and only attempt on a groove wrap!

Thanks thanks you are all way to nice! Adrian thanks for the hint I tried grinding with the wire on 220 wheel and it was a hard to do the wire broke many times.Then the rock went flying off leather pad thus you see cracks.I agree the earings need to match. Thank you all again...Roger
