JOSEFINA RIVOLI MEDALLION

©2018 Deborah Roberti

A great big medallion that is slightly domed to give it some dimension! Full step-by-step instructions included for creating a bezel using the peyote stitch to hold an 18mm round rivoli or Lunasoft cabochon. 3mm beads, SuperDuo and 11/0 seed beads are then added around this rivoli base.

Stitch: Various

Beads Used: Size 11/0 Miyuki Delica beads, size 11/0 and 15/0 Miyuki seed beads, 3mm beads (round or fire-polished beads work best) and an 18mm round crystal rivoli or Lunasoft cabochon

Approx Finished Size: About 1.75 inches square, not including findings

NOTE: Bead colors and coatings (and even bead types!) seem to be disappearing at a rate that I can no longer keep up with. I try to find substitutes when I can but "discontinued" seems to be the norm these days.

18mm rivolis are getting increasing difficult to find. RedPandaBeads.com still has some 18mm Swarovski rivolis left (click HERE). PotomacBeads.com has a gorgeous selection of Potomac brand rivolis (click HERE).
