22 Gauge for Detailed Wirework
At .025" in diameter, 22 gauge is a versatile choice for jewelry making and decorative wirework. It is finer and more flexible than heavier 18 and 20 gauge wire while still providing useful body for many formed components.
Use it for wire-wrapped bead links, loops, coils, spirals, decorative connectors, and detailed wire designs.
Smokey Quartz Metallic Finish
The Smokey Quartz finish gives your designs a rich, understated metallic appearance. Its darker neutral tone pairs beautifully with natural stones, beads, charms, findings, and contrasting wire colors.
It's an attractive choice for contemporary, rustic, nature-inspired, and vintage-style jewelry where a softer alternative to bright metallic colors is desired.
100 Feet for Jewelry & Craft Projects
Each roll contains 100 feet of 22 gauge wire, giving you a generous supply for wrapping, forming, repeated components, and decorative details.
The combination of a versatile .025" diameter and 100-foot roll makes it particularly useful for projects requiring multiple bead links, connectors, coils, or other small wire components.
