After I labored with my first Swarovski Navette wire-wrapped ring, I decided that the crispness of the Navette stone also called for a simpler style.  And so was born this Simply Rapt ring.

With it’s 2 hole setting, it was just a pure temptation to make a ring band that would utilize and engage the holes into a less common band style.

Construction Notes

Using 2 ball head-pins, one through each of the holes in the navette setting, and in opposite directions, I fastened them on by ending the head-pin with a wire-wrapped, closed loop.  (The loops are essential to attach to band).


The band  is made using 2 pieces of wire, held closely and parallel to each other.  This is curved over a ring mandrel for the desired size.  Then each end of the dual-wire is put through the loops formed earlier with the head-pin.


Fasten off and firmly attach to the navette stone with decorative swirls.

Work harden the wire on the band – put it over the ring mandrel and lightly but repeatedly hammer.
