Step 9 of 10

On the left, anchor and coil the loose 26-gauge copper wire along the naked 20-gauge copper wire from Step 4 (fig. 9a, 9b).

Form a secondary outer bail with the 20-gauge coiled wire and curl its top as shown (fig. 9c).

Then, finish with an anchor point on the back flat bail wire, and pull the remaining naked 20-gauge copper wire to the front (fig. 9d, 9e, 9f, 9g).

Repeat the process for the right secondary outer bail design (fig. 9h, 9i, 9j).

Lastly, polish the surface of your round abalone shell pendant using a finest steel wire wool (fig. 10e).
