Fused Abacus Forms
Try your hand at fusing with these fun components you can form into any shape your heart desires. You will create the base by fusing fine silver with a butane torch and then once the base is formed, you'll use fine wire and beads to create an abacus-style pendant or earring components with a textural, beautiful look!
Prerequisite:
Must have basic knowledge of jewelry hand tools and working with wire. Experience working with a flame is not required but is a plus.
