Wire Wrapped Jewelry

Our Latest Passion

Copper Practice Wire, or is it.

A customer asked the other day about our “Practice Wire.” I first started offering it so customers could practice on relatively inexpensive wire. When Silver got up to $17 an ounce, people started getting a little gun shy about wrecking an ounce or two as a beginner.

The truth is that it makes nice wire wrapped jewelry in it’s own right. Here is a photo of a piece Susie designed and Wrapped using copper wire. So if you are a jewelry designer and want to use copper, great. It also looks good with sterling bundle wraps.

    I just received your DVD and the basic tool kit with the copper practice wire. I haven’t had a chance to do anything with it yet. Do the copper practice wire tarnish?

    Hi Marion,
    Yes, the copper wire will tarnish over time, just like a penny. It shines up nicely with a little polish.
