Argentium Silver Jewelry Wire, Round, 18ga, Dead Soft (troy ounce)

• To keep track of your different materials of wire and sheet, mark each material with a different color of permanent marker. (Sharpies work great.)
• Any writing on wire or sheet is easily removed with acetone or fingernail polish remover.
• To prevent pliers from marring delicate, expensive materials such as sterling silver wire, fine silver wire, and gold-filled wire: wrap a bit of tape around serrated pliers so the serrations don't scrape or mar your wire. Nylon jaw pliers are also very convenient to use, and Tool Magic anti-scratch coating is a staff favorite!
• With all wire gauges: the larger the gauge, the smaller (thinner) the wire diameter.
• New to working with wire? See Wire Jewelry 101 for more information about gauges, hardness, and what size of wire is best for which types of jewelry projects.
