Twisted Wave Rings

Learn how to make this lovely adaptable design, then stack them together or add stones

About the Class

The Twisted Wave Ring is a simple but wonderfully versatile design that can be adapted in many different ways as your confidence grows.

In this class, you'll learn how to create a flowing wave pattern from silver wire, resulting in an elegant ring that is comfortable to wear and beautiful on its own. Once you've mastered the basic design, you'll discover just how adaptable it can be. Wear a single ring for a simple, understated look, stack several together, or use the design as the starting point for more creative projects.  

The wave shape also lends itself beautifully to further embellishment. Multiple rings can be combined, and the spaces between the curves provide wonderful opportunities for adding decorative elements such as stone settings.  

Downloadable class notes include a full equipment list, guidance on suitable wire sizes and shapes, and a ring size chart to help you create rings that fit comfortably and accurately.

self-taught and like many people started with wire and beads. Learning how to solder, however, opened up a whole new world of jewellery making,  one that she is keen to share!
