The listing, 4' Dead Soft, 20ga Real Sterling Filled Wire!(GIN: Make 4 Rings W/ All Parts & Ring Mandrel!) has ended.
This auction is for 4' of (80/20) ( "Sterling Filled") wire!
"Sterling Filled" is an "OXYMORON" or a name that is opposite of what it really is!
Silver Filled wire is 20% sterling silver wire with a base metal core in the center. It is made with a copper (or sometimes white brass) core center to give it strength and firmness when work hardened.
I offer this SF wire for this ring project because pure Sterling Silver is VERY SOFT and even when it is work hardened, it does not form the strongest and most stable ring bases. (without the base core)
This wire is dead soft, and A Beautiful, soft, real silver color- see photo.

Teach's Notes:
#1. ALL SILVER TARNISHES & NEEDS TIO BE CLEANED! NO liquid cleaners!
#2. DON"T BE FOOLED!
"ELECTROPLATED" jewelry is a VERY THIN plating and wears off easily!
#3. Gold & Silver filled is the new Gold & Silver! Buy up GF and SF now before they go thru the roof too!
