Sterling Silver Wire Round 22 Gauge HALF HARD - Approx. 1 troy oz (30ft)

A must have component for jewelry design, this 22 gauge sterling silver wire provides a nice base for jewelry creations. The half-hard malleability is favored among designers as it as easy to manipulate and will hold its shape nicely. Each spool of this round wire is approximately 30-feet in length.

Note: Please refer to our convenient gauge and wire conversion charts to assist you in determining which is the best wire for your project.

Pros: Size, Price, Versatile, Ease of Use, Quality
"This wire has been perfect for shaping delicate pendants with gemstones and pearls. The wire bends easily enough to make intricate designs, yet holds its shape very well once the piece is finished. Artbeads has the best prices, quality, and speedy shipping!"

"I use this particular wire for 99% of my projects.
The "half hard" designation gives it just the right amount of "spring"- 1 troy ounce equals app. 30 ft. and will last quite awhile. Love this product !!!

Perfect for Links
Date:June 4, 2010
Pros: Price, Quality, Size, Versatile, Ease of Use
"This is the perfect gauge wire if you want to create simple loop links (without wrapping). You'll get a nice strong loop. This is thicker than you need for wire wrapping. If you plan on wrapping, go for a thinner gauge: 24 or 26"

"This wire has lasted me such a long time! It's great quality, and looks beautiful in my pieces! The only thing that could make it better is if it had an anti tarnish coating. I'd do it myself, but I have no idea how :( I LOVE this wire though, and simply put a polishing cloth in with my orders :D"
