Does anyone have a source for 15 and 17 gauge sterling round wire? Pretty please? I'm making graduated Byzantine necklace and the transitions between 14 and 16, and 16 and 18 gauge just look a little - crude.
I suppose I could draw some down, but let's face it, that's just bloody hard work. |

| Found one - they do every gauge from 1 to 30 at metalliferous. In the Sterling Silver Soft section. |

Just be aware what "Soft" means... Your rings may not stay closed under stress without soldering.
