Enamel Beads and Pendants

We drool over these beads and pendants.  They are made in the States by firing enamel onto copper.  No two pieces are alike, since the molten glass creates fabulous designs as it moves across and settles on the copper.  I hope you find these pieces as beautiful as we do!  More to be added soon as well as ideas for making wonderful jewellery!  There is only one of each of these designs, so once it’s gone, it’s gone!

Project Idea - Necklace

copper-enamel-with-teardrop

This 80cm (32”) necklace combines teardrops, copper chain and a round enamel pendant.  The teardrops are strung on copper jumprings, and inserted into the chain.  To make this necklace you’ll need:

  • 28 copper jumprings
  • 24 teardrops
  • 1 enamel pendant
  • 56cm copper chain
  1. Choose an enamel pendant &  highlight colours from our range of teardrops: we chose spring dew & pastel yellow to draw out colours in the pendant
  2. Choose the copper chain - we used CC003
  3. Cut the chain into 4 different lengths: 41cm, 3cm, 3cm and 8.5cm
  4. For 12 of the copper jumprings, slip two teardrops on each jumpring to make 12 teardrop jumprings
  5. To join the teardrop jumprings together, add a jumpring between each of them to make four beaded lengths so you’ll have: two 2 teardrop jumprings plus 3 jumprings, and two 4 teardrop jumprings plus 5 jumprings
  6. For the asymmetric necklace shown, we’re building up both sides from the bottom, so add one small beaded length to one end of the 8.5cm chain and one longer beaded length to the other end of the 8.5cm chain to start the necklace chain
  7. Add 3cm chain to each of the ends of the necklace chain
  8. Add one small beaded length to one end of the necklace and a longer beaded length to the other end
  9. Add the longest chain length to the necklace chain, using the copper jumprings.  No need to have a lobster clasp as it will fit over your head.  Unless you prefer to use a clasp!
  10. Open a copper jumpring and slip on the pendant, find halfway on the pendant and attach to the chain
  11. That’s it!  If you want to make it bulkier with more teardrops, then just add more copper jumprings and teardrops
