Mountain Sunrise - coiled wire bail

This has been a fairly problematic piece for me and I'll probably redo it entirely - there's a wee bit of extra solder in the upper right and it drives me nuts! (this is before the stone was set, too)

The bail here (where the chain goes through) is a simple coil of wire that is soldered to the pendant. You can oxidize the silver (sterling - Argentium and Fine Silver don't oxidize well) to show the details of the coil.
