Hobbyworker 16 Gauge Copper Wire, 23.9 FT/1.3 mm Beaded Craft Wire for Jewelry Bracelet Making, Half Hard Rust and Corrosion Resistance (Copper)

Exactly what I wanted

I loved the feel of this silver wire right out the box. Its got a nice cool luster to it the really gleams and looks great next to all my beads and trinkets. I didn’t have a problem cutting, bending or twisting it with my pliers. I just wish I had bought more of it at the same time so I could finish my project.

Ah, behold the magical bendable copper wire! If you're in the market for some flexible metallic goodness, look no further because this little gem checks all the boxes. I put it to the test in a sagger firing (fancy pottery techniques, you know), and voila! It delivered exactly what I was aiming for – those sleek black lines on my precious pottery. It's like this wire was born to add that extra oomph to my artistic masterpieces. Kudos to this copper wonder for making my pottery dreams come true!

This is the weight I wanted to add to my jewelry making supplies.

First, I want to mention that I received this product for evaluation. I planned to use the 16 gauge jewelry copper wire to make some jewelry. I have some medium sized stones that I want to be able to hold with this wire. I expect that it is easy to form and that it provides good support to the stones. This product has met most of my expectations. I have the 16 gauge - silver wire. The wire is thick, of good quality, but difficult to bend. After working with it, it retains its shape. This will be appropriate to hold large stones.

I ordered 16 gauge which is more suitable for findings than hand wrapping and is not something I use much of. It's plenty stiff, but pliable and I was able to twist and flex a piece extensively without breaking it. In my mind, having a small amount available on a sturdy plastic spool justifies the considerable price. Not sure how corrosion resistant plating holds up to annealing, but this is perfect for my beginner projects.

I ordered this wire to use with wire wrapping, which I am honestly not very good at yet. I will say this wire was very easy to use, even for me. You're able to construct great, solid results. I didn't snap any wire or have any issues forming the shapes. I will be ordering more.

Quick delivery. Ordered it yesterday got it today. Too soft for my projects. This was a 20 gauge “copper” wire. It’s so hard to find good quality for selling jewelry. I bend it gently once and it broke very easily. I ordered a 16 gauge from the same company/seller so now I’m worried it won’t work for my other jewelry projects. A little pricy for it being low quality. 🙁🤨 I thought because of the price it would be better quality than Walmart wire. Not ordering again. Gave it 2 stars because of the quick delivery!!
