Copper Wire 0.8mm (20 Gauge) - Copper - 2.5m - Jewellery Making

Natural copper wire, 0.8mm and 20 gauge, for jewellery making, wire wrapping, beading and fine craft.

This roll holds 2.5 meters of copper wire in its natural copper colour. The soft copper bends, twists and coils by hand and takes a clean shape. At 0.8mm (20 gauge) it is a thicker wire that holds frames, ring bands and structural shapes. Bare copper develops a warm patina over time, which you can keep for a rustic look or seal for a bright copper shine.

Key Features

• Soft copper core bends, twists and coils by hand, ideal for wrapped loops, spirals and bead links.
• 0.8mm (20 gauge) thicker strength holds frames and ring bands, suited to base wire, clasps and structural shapes.
• Natural copper finish gives a warm, rustic tone and can be sealed or polished to keep its shine.
• 2.5 meter roll on a tangle free spool feeds out smoothly and cuts cleanly to length.

Where You Can Use This

• Wire wrapping, wrapped pendants and ring bands
• Earrings, bracelets, necklaces, rings and jump rings
• Frames, base wire, clasps and ear hooks
• Mixed media, resin frames and DIY craft detailing

Why Choose JustKraft

The wire is wound on a tidy, tangle free spool and coated evenly so it pulls out smoothly and bends without kinking. The copper colour stays consistent along the full 2.5 meters for clean, even results.

Pro Tips

For ring bands and frames, shape the wire over a mandrel or round form for even curves. File or tuck cut ends so they sit smooth against the skin.

Complete Your Setup

Pair this wire with beads, charms and stones for wrapped jewellery, and add other thicknesses from the same copper wire range, a thicker 0.8mm for frames and ring bands or a finer 0.3mm for weaving and coiling.
