Product Description

Artistic Wire is the most extensive line of permanently colored copper wire for jewelry and crafts. Exclusive Silver Plated colors that offer striking beauty and shine. These wires are made by first plating the copper wire with a precision layer of pure silver. Then we carefully apply our unique enamel color and non-tarnish coating on top of this silver plating. The silver plating beneath the color adds an incredible high-shine and brilliance to the wire. Great for making jewelry components such as chain maille, beaded chain, jump rings, earwires, and wire wrapped pendants.

I have been using this product for 3 years now and am very impressed with it. In fact, I prefer it over sterling wire, because it WILL NOT TARNISH. You must take care while working with the wire so you don't scratch off the clear finish. Use NYLON-JAW pliers while working with this wire or coat your metal tools with a rubberized finish, to prevent damaging the finish.
You can gently hammer this wire without damaging the coating, so you aren't stuck with just a round wire look.
If you take care you will get a beautifully bright silver wire piece that will never need polishing. GO FOR IT!

This wire is very popular for wire wrapping because it is easy to work with, doesn't tarnish, and looks beautiful. Would definitely recommend if you want a high end look at a very reasonable price.

This stuff is AWESOME! It has a nice sheen, it's easy to use, and I made a lot of ear cuffs and pendants with it! LOVE IT!!! And it's the best price I've been able to find anywhere.
