Artistic Wire, 22 Gauge Silver Plated Tarnish Resistant Colored Copper Craft Jewelry Wrapping Wire, Gold Color, 10 yd

The media could not be loaded. This is a beautiful wire to make a multitude of jewelry designs. 20g is my go-to size for earrings. I love the silver colour as it resembles sterling silver. The wire makes lovely curves and crisp angles. It is ideal to make spirals as in this video showing the making of Triskele Earrings. Two wires can be twisted together for rings. I have also made beautiful Trees of Life with this wire. I love all the colours that the Artistic Wire comes in. It is so great to make fun jewelry and wire Art. Highly recommend.

Great wire and comes exactly as described/pictured! Beadalon’s “Artistic Wire” is a crafting staple, because it’s easy to work with and shape into my desired design. I already their wire in several tones and almost every guage it comes in. This is the perfect wire for experimenting with new techniques and designs, since it’s much less expensive than actual silver or gold. The metal and color tones are even nice enough to use on their own (in place of more precious metas). Will definitely purchase again. FYI: I always see a lot of negative comments pertaining to the guage of the wire. People tend to complain that the wire is either thinner or wider than they thought it would be. If you are not too familiar with wire and how the guage affects their size, please do yourself a favor and research the guage before ordering. There are tons of “guage to millimeter” charts online (they even have examples of the actual size for comparison). By taking a minute to google the size/conversion charts, you will be able to save yourself the disappointment of purchasing the wrong size. It will also save you, as well as the the seller, the hassle of having to return the item - not to mention a less than 5 ⭐️ review. It annoys me to no end, when a seller’s rating Is negatively impacted, simply because a person was too lazy to double check the actual size of a product.

Like it.

The quality of this wire is very good. I use it for wrapping crystals and stones, and have not had a problem with it breaking. It looks good on a finished product although it is not super shiny. I have used this wire for quite some time, and usually ships in a timely fashion.

I usually use 20g copper wire to make the frame of my wire wrapped stone pendants. This silver wire was definitely different. I hated it at first but I adapted to make it work. This is most definitely less sturdy than 20g copper. I would usually use 3 copper wires for a pendant frame, I had to use at least 4 of these silver wires to achieve the same sturdiness and support. Next time I would want this in 18 gauge. Also, at first, I didn’t like the way this felt with the plastic type coating on it. The wire will make a squeaking noise as I pull it through my fingers, which was very offputting to me at first. After making the first pendant and then taking it apart and throwing the used wire away bc it was too flimsy, I figured out how to make this work for me. Also pay attention to how many yards/feet are on this roll. Definitely less than the copper rolls I get. I’ve made 3 pretty basic pendants with this roll and I estimate I have enough left for maybe 1 more, 2 if I’m lucky. Ultimately, this is the most cost efficient alternative (on Amazon) to buying real sterling silver wire but still more expensive than copper wire and you get less for your money. I’ll probably order it again but I don’t like it enough to offer it as a regular option for my customers. I’ll keep it in my stash for special requests and I’ll wait until I can afford real silver wire before I offer it as a regular option.

Easy-to-use

Made some really nice bracelets with this. Just make sure you dont use regular jewelry wire cutters. Use some heavy duty ones or you could ruin your good wire cutters.

got this so I could make webbing for my spiderman action figures & it works out great

tres bien pour les débutantes en bijou

Came super fast and always great quality

I have bought and used this wire for many years. It used to be fairly good… last two years, it is just not good. After a month or two being on the created item…. It turns a yellow… colour, looks more like gold wire than silver! have had many complaints from custom3s, now cannot ever use this again! Should not advertise it as “tarnish resistant” because this is untrue!!!

I made a tree and yes I shell order again .

It has a very bright finish, it is easy to bend, it holds its' shape well .
