    help!need wire work emerald cut stone pattern

     I have been searching everywhere for an example of a wire bezel for a deep faceted emerald cut stone. The stone is absolutely gorgeous and my friend wants me to wire wrap it for a present for his wife. He is so sweet wanting to do this for her but I am having a very hard time looking for a bezel that will accommodate the depth of the stone. can anyone show me a picture or a pattern for something like this? thanks ahead of time.

     no replies yet, just a picture of a square or rectangular wire wrapped stone would help. I am placing three wires across the back and tying them into the normal front wire- well trying to. I would like to see how someone else would have done this.

    I have no experience with this, but you might consider posting this in wireworking at the Art Jewelry forum. 

    You can get there by clicking on the link at the bottom of this page, above the tree graphic. Sign in as you would here.

    Did you look at the Anna Lemons articles on Art Jewelry's Web site? She did one called "Amplified Brilliance" and another called "Simple Elegance." Both use wire to bezel stones. Neither project features an emerald-cut stone, but you might get some ideas. Good luck!

    well here's the good news and the bad- someone actually replied to my request, thank you. the bad news, I made a bezel used up most of the wire- it looked quite good and then I couldn't get the darn stone in it- excuse the language..

    so anyone want to actually help me sort out the answert to this dilema? I have one more chance and I am going to have to do it now.
