I Need Help From All Beaders and Chainmaille experts

I have some larger cabachons that I would love to learn to either chainmaille around them, or bead weave to make a pendant. I am looking for simple, and preferably free tutorials. I have no idea what they are called, so I am having a hard time searching for tutorials. If anyone is willing to help me out, I would very grateful. Thank you, in advance.

Lovely and Simple Rhodochrosite Ring

Rhodochrosite is a lovely pink gemstone. It is almost always found in cabachon form, but recently has been available in faceted form. It is very pricey, and expensive, in faceted stones. This lovely Rhodochrosite is 5.5mm round cabachon, from Argentina. It is a lovely pink color, with very little if any banding noted. It is set in a sterling silver simple ring setting, it is a size 6. Rhodochrosite has a hardness of only 4 on the Moh's hardness scale, every day wear is not recommended. This lovely ring is available for sale, here on my blog, or in my Etsy store. If you are interested in it, you can visit my Etsy store Missy69, or contact me to buy through this blog. Price is 24.99

Prehnite The Gemstone With Inner Glow

Prehnite, is an amazing gemstone, at least to me. It exhibits, an inner glow, unique to this gemstone. Cabachon gemstones, are usually the softer green, variety, like seen in the photo. Faceted Prehnite, is a much more intense green color, with a glow of fiery yellows. I do not own any faceted Prehnite, but it is on my long list, of gemstones to own. The cabachon variety, of Prehnite, is a soft green color, and it is almost mesmerizing. It is like looking into a crystal ball. I get several compliments on this ring. There is also Golden Prehnite, which is a newer find of the gemstone, and is a very soft golden yellow color. I have only seen it in cabachon form, not faceted, and I believe I own at least one piece of that variety.

Prehnite, has a 6-6 1/2 hardness, according to the Mohs Hardness Scale. It was named after a Dutch colonel. It has a vitreous to mother of pearl luster. Deposits of Prehnite, can be found in Australia, China, Scotland, South Africa, and the USA.

Bold Smoky Quartz and CZ Ring

I love this ring, definitely one of my favorites. I have had this Smoky Quartz gemstone for some time. Now it finally has a home, in this lovely sterling silver unique semi mount. It is a size 6, and the center stone is surrounded by round CZ's. Usually stones are cut in cabachon form because they not transparent, not this one. This Smoky Quartz is so clean and wonderful, you can see right through to the floor of the gallery of the ring. This ring is stunning, and will be available for sale in my Etsy store. This semi mount was purchased from Jewelry Television, from a new line of semi mounts they have available. The first one I purchased I was not pleased with. This one, and the two others I just bought, were awesome. One hint if you buy from JTV I have found their settings often do not fit the size stone they say they do. Buy the setting first, then measure, and purchase your stone.

I love Cameos, New and Vintage

I really love Cameos, new and old. The ring shown, my mother made for me for my birthday. It is a heavy silver, with a lilac and white cameo. I love it, and wear it often. The other two shown, I have had in my collection for many years. I think they are Intaglios but I am not sure. If anyone has any idea how to identify them, I would love to know. They do not appear to have any markings. The Brooch is of a Roman Soldier under glass, it is very colorful and 3D. The square cabachons are also Roman Soliders, and are 3D. I would love to know some more information on these, they are fascinating.
