Description
This bezel wire is 99.9% pure silver – not an alloy, 28 gauge or .321 thick. The price shown is for 12 inches silver bezel wire. This is the minimum length sold. When purchasing, please indicate the quantity you want (EACH 12 inches = 1 quantity).
This intricate sterling silver gallery wire features an open, filigree look and is ideal for creating custom bezels and for adding decorative elements to a wide variety of jewelry designs. The wire features a hard (as rolled) temper and is delicate and should be handled with care. Hard wire is significantly work-hardened and, though it does not bend readily, it stubbornly holds its shape after forming. Keep in mind that hardness is changeable (by annealing or heat-hardening) and is relative among metal types (each temper will feel and handle differently from one metal to another). When finishing your pieces, also keep in mind that the harder the metal is, the brighter a finish it will take.
