This project was made for a heart shaped stone of “red coral”, this project fell in the pickle solution when the metal was too hot and crystallized the metal, made it brittle and may have to be tossed into the “silver scrap bucket”. L Do u have any ideas as to how to salvage all the work?

This is what sterling bezel wire looks like in the raw. It comes by the foot. I’ve included 3 different formed bezels. As you can see they have not been soldered as of yet.
