I thought I knew how to improve it. The answer wasn't the beads

Yesterday I posted these bracelets because something about the green one was bothering me, but I couldn't work out exactly what. A lot of the comments pointed out things like bead spacing, tension, alignment and colour, which got me looking much more closely at the piece. all were correct answers but it the root of the problem.

In the end I tried something I hadn't done before and used AI to remove all the beads from both bracelets so I could only look at the underlying wire structure. Once the beads were gone the problem became obvious. A few bends in the green weave were much larger than the others, which then affected the bends around them and threw off the rhythm of the whole piece. The beads weren't causing the problem, they were just making an existing structural issue easier to see. I thought some of you might find the method useful if you ever have a piece that feels wrong but you can't quite work out why.

Dear wire wrappers: Show the back or are you a hack?

5 Upvotes

I see a lot of fronts that look great.

But will your jewelry withstand the test of time? Daily use? Partying? Dancing?

Would it make it though burning man? A week in the woods? Takin dabs?

Or is your pendant gonna get snagged on the wearers hoodie and bend itself into oblivion when the wearer stands up?

A finished piece that only looks good and is durable from the front is in fact, not finished yet.

Why are cabochons only rounded on one side?

And are there symmetrical ones? What are they called?

I tried wrapping for the first time yesterday. Prior, I always admire the wrapped pendants i see for sale, but am also always annoyed at the flat "back" - a pendant won't always sit the "correct" way so to me it would make more sense to work both ways assuming the stone looks good on both sides.
