Beadsmith Silver Filled Wire – 0.5oz Spool

Product Summary

Beadsmith Silver Filled Wire pairs the look and workability of sterling with a friendlier price. A thick layer of sterling silver is bonded to a brass core, giving far more silver than plated wire and a finish that lasts through wear, polishing and shaping.

Key Features

• Thick sterling silver layer bonded to a brass core
• Far greater silver content than silver-plated wire
• Available in gauges 18 to 26
• Tempers: Dead Soft and Half Hard
• Supplied on a 0.5 oz spool

Uses

Perfect for wire wrapping, hammered designs, ear wires, rings and detail work where you want real silver behaviour without solid silver cost.

Benefits

Because the silver layer is thick, you can file, hammer and polish with confidence, and your pieces keep their bright silver finish far longer than plating allows.

FAQs

Is silver filled the same as silver plated? No, the bonded silver layer is much thicker, so it wears and polishes like sterling rather than rubbing through.

Which temper suits wrapping? Dead Soft for flowing wraps and weaving; Half Hard for structural loops and components that must hold firm.
