Specifications

Extra-Fine 28 Gauge Wire

At only .013" in diameter, 28 gauge is significantly finer than the heavier craft-wire sizes. This gives you greater flexibility for intricate designs and makes it easier to work around small beads, stones, frames, and other components.

The fine diameter is particularly useful when a project requires multiple passes of wire without adding excessive bulk.

Excellent for Wire Weaving & Detailed Wrapping

Fine wire is an important part of many wire-weaving and wrapping techniques. 28 gauge provides the flexibility needed to make closely spaced wraps and detailed woven patterns around heavier base wires.

It is also useful for wrapping small components, adding decorative accents, binding elements together, and creating fine coils and other intricate wire details.

Warm Antique Copper Finish

The Antique Copper finish provides the rich character of aged copper without requiring you to create a patina yourself.

Its darker copper tone complements natural stones, earth-tone beads, wood, leather, charms, and contrasting metals. The finish works particularly well in rustic, vintage-inspired, nature-themed, and mixed-media designs.

99% Pure Copper Core

ParaWire Metallic Craft Wire is made with a 99% pure copper core and a protective non-tarnish coating that provides the Antique Copper color.

This gives you the workability of copper craft wire with a consistent decorative finish rather than the naturally changing appearance of untreated bare copper.

300 Feet for Wire-Intensive Projects

Intricate wrapping and weaving can use considerable lengths of fine wire. Each roll contains 300 feet of 28 gauge wire, giving you a generous supply for projects involving repeated wraps, woven sections, detailed components, or numerous pieces.

The combination of an extra-fine .013" diameter and 300-foot roll makes this an especially practical choice for techniques where fine wire is used continuously.
