Frequently Asked Questions
Jewellery twisted wire is a type of wire used in jewellery making that has been intricately twisted to create a spiral or helical pattern along its length.
This twisted pattern adds a decorative texture and visual interest to the wire, making it more aesthetically appealing than plain wire.
Twisted wire is often used to add a unique element to handmade jewellery pieces, such as rings, bracelets, necklaces, and earrings.
To make a ring out of twisted wire, follow these general steps:
- Measure and Cut: Determine the desired size for the ring and cut a length of twisted wire accordingly, allowing extra length for overlap and adjustments. use our ring size chart for guidance.
- Shape the Ring: Wrap the wire around a ring mandrel or a similar cylindrical object to form it into a circular shape. Adjust it to the correct size, ensuring the ends meet.
- Secure the Closure: This can be done by soldering the ends together.
- Finish and Polish: Once the ends are secured, remove any sharp edges and smooth the ring. Polish it to enhance the twisted pattern and give it a finished look.
Our twisted wire is made by precisely twisting two wires of the same gauge together to create a beautiful, uniform spiral pattern that adds texture and visual interest to jewellery pieces.
