Filigree Africa Beads

These are the beads I made for the Thuthuka competition. I used sterling silver for the frames of the beads and then added fine silver filigree into the gaps. 
I experienced a few problems with the filigree because when I domed the pieces some of the filigree came out, so what I did was that I made the filigree tighter in the gaps so that there would be more surface area for the filigree to attach to.
