Now, let’s form an intricate pendant bail with the center part (fig. 11a).
Use the zig-zag weave technique on the pendant bail with a 22-gauge gold copper wire (fig. 11b).
Start from the left by binding two 18-gauge wire strings with three 22-gauge wire coils (fig. 11c, 11d).

Next, bind four 18-gauge wire strings at the center (fig. 11e, 11f, 11g, 11h).
Then, bind two 18-gauge wire string on the right (fig. 11i, 11j, 11k).
Make a return weave by coiling the center bundle (fig. 11l, 11m, 11n, 11o) and the left bundle (fig. 11p, 11q, 11r).

Weave the pendant bail for two inches long (fig. 12a, 12b, 12c).
Trim off the excess 22-gauge wire with a wire cutter (fig. 12d, 12e, 12f, 12g, 12h).
Then, curl your pendant bail into shape using a stepped bail-making pliers (fig. 12i, 12j, 12k).
Note that the left part and right part is within the pendant bail (fig. 12l).
