— Copper Beads and Findings —

Looking for pure copper beads and findings? I've got just what you're looking for. Copper is a hot trend in jewelry right now. As the cost of silver and other metals continues to climb, copper is still an affordable metal for creating great looking artisan jewelry. I offer a variety of pure copper beads and findings at great prices in my Etsy store called hodgepodgerie Necessities! From handmade Bali beads, bead caps and daisy spacers in several shapes, to flat discs and washers. And, I have some great twisted copper jewelry wire for really enhancing your designs.
copper beads and findings
As a designer, I get very frustrated when I buy beads on the internet and the holes in the beads do not accommodate the larger gauge wire that I often use in my jewelry. So I've taken the time to measure and determine the largest gauge wire you can slide through each bead that I sell. Plus, all of my copper beads and findings are 100% pure copper.....no plated stuff here! Check out my Etsy feedback to see that I have many happy and repeat customers.

Not all "copper" beads are created equal. There's a definite difference in look and, most importantly, wearability. The beads I carry are NOT copper plated over brass or base metal. They are 100% PURE COPPER, created by hand to exacting standards. There's no need to worry about the plating wearing off during your design process or, heaven forbid, rubbing off while your customers are wearing them!

I always strive to carry only the finest quality components, just what my customers have come to recognize and appreciate in my own designs.

I also offer twisted copper jewelry wire in 16, 18, 20, 22 and 24 gauges. This is true twisted wire made from two separate lengths of pure copper wire, not the single length of wire you often see that's stamped or textured to appear twisted. If you don't see what you need, let me know. I can probably twist up whatever you're looking for. 

Want to add more pizzazz to your designs? Then check out the variety of handmade etched, textured and hammered bead caps. And don't forget to check out some terrific jewelry making tools and supplies.
