These pendant sets are a composite made by fusing stone fragments using heat, pressure and a stabilizing agent or resin. The stone fragments remain clearly visible, creating fascinating patterns. Composite beads may also be called “mosaic beads” because of the visible fragments. The stone used to create composite beads is usually the remnants from cutting, making them a great way to incorporate upcycled elements in designs with a vibrant pop of color!
These 11 piece gemstone ladder pendant sets are versatile for your jewelry designs! They make a great statement piece when using all 11 pieces or just use a few pendants in multiple designs. The size ranges from 15mm-38mm. Here are 3 ways to using these gemstone pendant sets.
Gemstone Collar Necklace
Items used in necklace: LAPBRZ15-38-LAD-PEN, FTBW0001, A004831, SB00106, Z010754, Z010740
The most basic way to using these pendant set is making a collar necklace. We used the entire set and strung the pendants on Soft Flex wire with a seed bead in between each pendant. At each end we slid on a clamshell bead tip and crimped a 1.5mm crimp tube to sit inside the clamshell tip. Because we LOVE our adjustable necklace slide clasp, we slid on its jump ring end to the loop of the clamshell bead tip and closed the loop. Instant necklace to wear!

Pendant Drop Necklace
Items used in necklace: MGI-FAN-PEN-11, SB00106, Z011944, A019633 or WR00033.
Make a pendant drop with one or a few pendants from your set. One way is to simple slide a pendant on an eyepin for an easy drop. Or slide on three pendants with a seed bead on either side (optional) on an eyepin or wrapped wire loop. Then add your adjustable necklace chain to each loop of your drop pendant for a super easy necklace.
Beading Chain Pendant Necklace
Items used in necklace: MGI-FAN-PEN-11, Z012743, CH00725
A fun third option is to slide your pendants on a beading chain. Cut your beading chain to your preferred necklace length. Slide pendants onto the beading chain. End your beading chain using the Loop Crimp Lobster Clasp Set (Z012741/Z012743). Slide end cap on beading chain and crimp the end to your beading chain. Repeat to other beading chain end. Open jump ring and slide on lobster clasp and through end cap loop. Repeat to other end cap without a clasp.







Do you have suggestions for types or strength of flex wire to use with pendant sets? Or gauge of artistic wire for collar pendant designs that more so keep their shape? Thanks!
I would use a medium gauge if you’re using soft flex wire. If you want to use Artistic Wire, I would suggest a 16 to 20 Gauge. It will be stiff, but not too stiff that you can’t bend and shape it. If you want your necklace to keep its shape, try using Beadalon Necklace Memory Wire. It forms a round shape that stays it round form.
Thank you for your recommendations! Happy Beading!
Wow! such a beautiful necklace. Gemstone Pendant Sets are very trendy these days. I am very interested in these pendants.
Thank you.
