THE GEOMETRY OF JEWELRY: Build Striking Wire Pieces with Jig-Based Techniques

By Dan Williams

Discover how precision, structure, and creativity come together in modern wire jewelry design.

The Geometry of Jewelry is a practical, skill-building guide for jewelry makers who want to move beyond guesswork and create clean, intentional wire designs using jig-based techniques. Whether you are new to wirework or looking to refine your process, this book shows how geometric principles-lines, curves, angles, symmetry, and repetition-can transform simple wire into striking, wearable art.

Rather than relying on complex formulas or abstract theory, this guide focuses on hands-on methods that help you design with confidence and consistency. You'll learn how to use jewelry jigs to plan shapes accurately, reproduce matching components, and build structured pieces that look polished and professional.

Inside this book, you'll explore:

How geometry influences balance, proportion, and visual flow in wire jewelry

Setting up and using jewelry jigs for precision and repeatability

Working with straight lines, angles, curves, circles, and polygons

Creating symmetrical earrings, modular bracelets, and structured necklaces

Incorporating beads without disrupting clean geometric forms

Layering wire designs while maintaining clarity and strength

Designing custom connectors, clasps, and findings

Troubleshooting common jig-based challenges

Developing your own original geometric designs with confidence

Each chapter builds progressively, guiding you from foundational concepts to complete projects that reinforce technique and design thinking. Clear explanations and structured projects make the content accessible while still offering depth for continued growth.

This book is ideal for:

Jewelry makers interested in wire and jig-based techniques

Creators who want consistent, repeatable designs

Artists drawn to modern, minimalist, and geometric aesthetics

Hobbyists and small-scale makers refining their craftsmanship

The Geometry of Jewelry is not about copying patterns-it's about understanding structure so you can design freely, intentionally, and with lasting results.

If you're ready to bring clarity, balance, and precision to your wire jewelry, this guide will help you build pieces that look as intentional as they are beautiful.
