This elegant infinity-inspired wire-wrapped pendant features delicate weaving with red coral beads. Here’s how you can recreate this sophisticated design:

Materials:

1. Wire:
   • 18-gauge gold-filled or brass wire for frame
   • 26-gauge wire for weaving

   • Space evenly across framework
   • Secure each bead with fine wire wrap
   • Create graduated spacing pattern
4. Secure Construction:
   • Reinforce center crossing point
   • Wrap all connection points thoroughly
   • Check bead security
5. Create Bail:
   • Form simple loop at top
   • Wrap base of bail securely
   • Size appropriately for chain
6. Finishing:
