Sterling Silver Wire

Silver jewelry wire is great for wire wrapping, making jewelry and creating your own jewelry findings. Remember the higher the gauge number, the thinner the wire. For reference, standard gauge of sterling silver wire to make earrings is 20 gauge wire. The terms “dead soft" and "half hard" are terms that refer to the stiffness of wire.
Half-Hard Wire - Some stiffness and retains its shape when bent. Ideal for earrings, clasps and hooks.
Dead Soft Wire - bends easily and will conform to almost any shape. Great for wire wrapping and making chain.
