Organic Spiral Rose Ring Tutorial | Copper Wire

#wirewrapping #wirewrappedjewelry #wireringtutorial
In this tutorial, I’ll show you how to create an organic wire wrapped rose ring, featuring a sculptural spiral rose focal and delicate open rosette details on the sides of the band. This design is created using 18 gauge copper wire for strength and structure, with variations formed by introducing different wire gauges to create softer, more intricate side rosettes.

The rose itself is formed using a freeform spiral technique, allowing the wire to flow naturally rather than following rigid measurements. This gives each ring its own unique, organic character — no two roses are ever the same.

I’ll guide you step by step through:

Forming an organic spiral rose focal

Working with 18g wire to maintain durability in a ring design

Adding open rosette accents along the band

Using wire gauge changes to create multiple design variations

Tips for keeping your spirals fluid, balanced, and comfortable to wear

This tutorial is ideal for confident beginners and intermediate wire artists who love nature-inspired, botanical, and organic wire jewellery. It’s also perfect if you enjoy developing one core technique into several wearable variations.

If you love copper wire, freeform wire wrapping, and jewellery that celebrates natural movement and imperfection, this rose ring design will give you both inspiration and practical skills to expand your ring-making repertoire.
