22ga Dead Soft Argentium Sterling Wire - per 30cm

This unprecedented patented Argentium (R) Wire is redefining the jewellery industry. Argentium sterling silver has dramatically better tarnish resistance than standard sterling and is much more durable. Argentium contains 93.5% Fine silver, 5.5% Copper & 1% Germanium, significantly altering the alloy's properties. It's advantages over Sterling include:
* Tarnish Resistant - a light dusting or occasional wipe with a soft cloth are all you need to do to keep it's shine. The resistance actually increases over time.
* Resistant to dents, scratches and abrasion.
* Better for the environment - because it doesn't develop firescale (a reddish patina) when heated which eliminates processes that use hazardous materials needed to strip firescale from standard sterling materials.
* Laser Weldable opening new design possibilities
* Can be hardened (through thermal conditioning) to be almost twice as tough as standard sterling.
