12 Gauge Jewelry Wire is fairly heavy. This is a popular size for making bangle bracelets and other wire bracelets. It's stiff enough that you'll want good-quality jewelry tools when working with it, but it's not too hard to shape. For soft wire such as copper, you may need to work-harden the wire to make sure bracelets and rings don't bend out of shape. Sometimes the process of forming your jewelry into the proper shape, work-hardens it enough. For other designs you may need to hammer-texture them or use a wire whacker on your finished design.

12-gauge round raw (bare) copper wire, 4oz. spools (approx. 12 feet). 100% copper. Solid copper wire has a lovely warm hue and is naturally dead-soft in strength. You can work harden this jewelry making wire to create sturdy components or leave it dead soft to create opulent swirls, lashes, and wraps. Leave the copper bright and shiny, or oxidize it to create an antiqued look.
