Uses & Benefits

Soft temper is the wire wrapping favourite: it flows around stones, coils neatly and forgives mistakes. Ideal for wire-wrapped pendants, rings, ear wires and delicate detail work where you want the wire to go exactly where you direct it. A fraction of the cost of solid gold, with far more gold than plating — it keeps its golden finish through years of wear.

FAQs

What does 14/20 gold filled mean? A layer of 14K gold at least 1/20th of the total metal weight, bonded to a brass core under heat and pressure — far more gold than plating.

Soft or half hard? Choose soft for wrapping, coiling and detail work; half hard if the piece needs to hold its own shape.

Can I harden it? Yes — soft wire work-hardens as you shape it, and finished pieces can be tumbled for extra strength.
