Ricky James Swartzwelder
Bezel Form
Amherst, Virginia. USA
Primary interests are Lapidary and wire wrapping. Introduced Bezel
Form wire wrap mandrels and prong guides in 2007. Bezel Form wire
wrap mandrels have enabled hundreds or wire artist’s to be more
creative and ease the difficulties associated with wire forming.
Metalsmiths use the engraving to mark out prong locations on bezel
wire. I am a member of the Gideons (think hotel bibles) and have
three daughters and five grandchildren. My lovely wife of 22 years
and I live in Central Virginia.
