You read my mind with this method of bezeling your rivoli! I have been looking for a way that uses minimal beads to allow the rivoli to shine for itself! Perfect!

[@miriamshakra8061]

This is so beautiful. You are so creative & I love very much your pieces. Thanks for sharing

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

Thank you very much for your kind words. I'm on YT since August so don't feel sorry for not finding me before. :) My boyfriend tells me that my voice is too low and that I should speak louder but when I concentrate on the beading I always forget to keep the voice high. :) So I appreciate very much when you say that I am soft spoken. :)) Big hugs, Sidonia

[@MagdalenaFouseki]

Your work is amazing, thanks for sharing and keep on working your excellent creations!!!

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

Thanks a lot, Magda! :)

[@psycobeader]

Wonderful! i find the rivolis to be so beautiful it seems a shame to cover them up as much as the other bezels i have done. This is a great method. Thanks so very much for all your efforts and creative ideas.

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

Thank you, Lori. :-)

[@katielyb]

I modified this pattern to fit a 14mm rivoli by using 12 3mm bicones with 12 15/0's in between and only 3 15/0's in the 2nd & 3rd rows if anyone finds this helpful.

[@НадеждаУсенко-р3у]

Потрясающе! Очень красиво!!!

[@tinadujanovic4290]

HI Sidonia. Love your work! Can you due a tutorial just like this for 14mm? I love that most of the rivoli shows and don't waste beads.

[@viktoriyaraskin5054]

Very nice!!!!!!!

[@wesleyktb]

Thank you oh so much, finally one that I can do...

[@michellemuggleton6506]

Sidonia I can't wait to see what you are going to create next. Will it be soon?

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

:D Hopefully, Michelle. :D

[@bettywinterton8714]

Hi Sidonia, thank you for posting this you tube instruction. I have used it several times now and I am currently trying to reduce the pattern to fit a 12mm rivoli without much luck. I have used the pattern as is and find that its too much to pull in to fit tightly at the back and have also tried reducing the sizing without much luck. Are you able to help me with the correct pattern, please. Thank you in advance for your kind help. Betty

[@SidoniaPetki]

Hello Betty, I have a tutorial for a 12mm rivoli, find it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aGi5ZZp3mq2drZo. I hope it's what you're looking for. :)

[@bettywinterton8714]

@@SidoniaPetki Thank you very much Sidonia, I will have a look at it. Kind Regards Betty

[@nanasdoodle]

Pardon me if I missed this, but can you post a beaded bail for these beauties? I love the bezel and can't wait to try, but what to do with them next? Thank you so much.

[@jannyb55]

beatuiful and so simple! thank you so much

[@Tracey319]

would love text version so i can follow by reading instead of watching ;) i like to keep referring back to make sure i am doing it right and its hard with video. your tutorials are lovely beautiful creations!

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

Hi, Tracey, I'll try to make one soon! :-)

[@Missstarryeyed01]

I love this can you please show how to bezel a 14 mm rivoli in the same way? Thank you

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

Hi! I made a necklace using 14mm rivolis, so you can see how I made the bezel here: Sidonia's handmade jewelry - Blue Roses Necklace - Swarovski Necklace P1

[@katielyb]

You wouldn't happen to have the bead count for this pattern on a smaller rivoli would you? I'm using a 14mm. I'd be so grateful if you did.

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

Thanks, Danielle :)

[@bonnie4526]

hi sidonia love this bezel how many beads will I need a go around a 14 mm rivoli? are you going to make more videos? have a sparkly day

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

+Bonnie King Hi Bonnie, it should work with 12 bicones. I will make more videos, but right now I'm working on some projects I would like to teach in workshops, in UK, hopefully. :-) Have a nice day too!

[@bonnie4526]

Thank you!

[@tinadujanovic4290]

12 seemed to be too many. I used 10 and it worked much better.

[@silviamarinaalvarez2607]

muy bonito el tuto gracias mil saludos

Hi can you show how to bezel a 14mm rivoli in the same way? Thank you

[@hildalechner2955]

beautiful

[@janella62]

Your designs are gorgeous, your tutorials are great and I truly appreciate the time and effort you put in for us but I find I can't hear you very well, it sounds like your talking to yourself. Sorry I don't mean to criticise but it gets a bit frustrating

[@jolandaversteeg9464]

Hi Sidonia. I love your way to bezel very much. Not too much over the stone. Can I use the same technique to bezel a cabochon 13×18 mm? (With 3 mm bicones and 15/0 seedbeads) Thank you so much in advance. Love, Jolanda

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

Hi and thank you, Jolanda! Yes, you can, you'll just need to figure out yourself how to close/cover the back side, but that shouldn't be too difficult, once you made the row of units around the stone. Just play with the beads, and don't worry if you'll need to make a few attempts, that's exactly how I learned too. :)

[@jolandaversteeg9464]

Sidonia's Handmade Jewelry Okay. I will. Mille grazie. Vă mulţumesc Dankjewel. 💜

[@veredho12]

Swarovski You know how to squeeze if you want to use Rivoli 14 mm?

[@JosephineDeLuca]

what size bicones thx

[@karym.p.6886]

es muy hermoso ...aunque no te entiendo pero lo intentare

[@carolleggett2072]

That is amazing thank you.

[@TheUniquekme]

you are amazing!

[@sillytubeify]

Excuse if I’m repeating question. Have you tried this on 14mm???

[@sillytubeify]

I mean an altered formulation

[@LinaDominguez3]

Love it!!! Thanks

[@loversdream85]

Hi Sidonia! I have an 27 mm rivoli. What do you think, can I bezel it this way too? Thanks! :)

[@datchagirl7662]

Dear Sidonia do you think I can use this technic to bezel an oval cabochon ? Thank you for your help

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

Yes, definetely. Take a look at video, it could be helpful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nImxnIFriZybf9k

[@datchagirl7662]

Thank you Sidonia. Yes I watched it a few minutes ago and of course i found it quite appropriate to bezel my oval cabochon. But the technic you used for the round one seemed more interesting to me because it has the advantage to not cover to much the front of the cabochon. And that's just what I want it to be. The cabochon is having nice flowers painted on it. So I'd like the bezel to cover it the least as possible....That's why I wondered if I could use this technic

[@datchagirl7662]

Maybe I will do a mix of the two technics to have the oval shape bicone ring on the front and the netting at the back

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

Good idea! :)

[@معصومهسیخ]

سلام خیلی قشنگه اما من حرف های قشنگ شمارو توجه نمیشم کاش کنار وسایل هاتون منظورم منجوق و نگین اینا هستش سایز شون رو کنارش بنوسید ماهم متوجه بشیم ببخشید سایر نگین و کریستال چنده میشه بگین

[@magcottrell]

Have you any idea how many bicones I would need for a 30mm x 22mm rivoli please?

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

I have not tried this technique on this size of cab yet, but, I did bezeled a 30x22 cab; here it is Sidonia's handmade jewelry - 30x22mm Swarovski cabochon ring if you didn't already see it, of course. :-)

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

Try to use 12 bicones only. :)

[@joannestanlake1081]

What size seed beads do you use? I've tried 11/o delicas, 11/o tohos with 15/o and I still can't seem to get it right? What am I doing wrong?

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

You'll need Miyuki 15/0s. Tohos will not work, because they are a little bit bigger than Miyukis, even if of the same size.

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

Σας ευχαριστούμε! :)

How to bezel a 16mm rivoli without covering it too much :)

[@katkathi709]

Have my volume high as it will go and you are talking too quietly can and not enunciating clearly, I am having to guess at what you say and keep going back to try and re listen, which is quite frustrating and bothersome! .....otherwise, I love this project thankyou for sharing

[@jimmyjemz9414]

what about bead numbers for a 14mm or 18mm rivoli?

I like this one but.....your explication is not very clear....

[@finkgudrun5188]

I use mostly headphones and I could hear it better

[@pininlun]

Yes, I can send you, can you send me your mail?

[@boniemann]

your jewelry is gorgeous, but your videos are very hard to follow. You speak very quietly and really don't explain exactly what you are doing. Try checking out some videos by Kelly Dale from OFF THE BEADED PATH.....she is an excellent instructor......I've been trying all day to get this piece figured out....will keep trying ;-) thanks for your beautiful work.

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

I'm really sorry you are having trouble following the video. I know my voice is low, in fact I'm going to buy my self a microphone. Which steps you don't understand? Maybe I can help by writing them to you. I know Kelly, I've learnt a lot from her :-). Anyway, this was one of my first tutorials ever. I was very shy and afraid of speaking in English because afraid of doing mistakes.

[@boniemann]

Sidonia's handmade jewelry your English is fine, just couldn't hear.....I just watched the video over and over again until I got it.....I really do love your work.

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

I'm really happy you got it in the end! :-)

[@Sidoniasbeadedjewelry]

I sent you a private message. :)
