Dara Spiotto writes that everyone but her seemed to know the trick to using filigree pieces as components in their work. Well no, Dara, that’s not quite true. I didn’t really know much about it either! I’ve seen some wonderful pieces that bend the filigree around to make a frame for a cabochon, but I hadn’t thought much beyond that point.
Well, Dara has written a wonderful article for The Beadin’ Path, showing us many more tricks to using filigree pieces. It’s well worth a read!
