Wrapit Wire vs Artistic Wire 20 Gauge Tarnish Resistant Colored Copper Craft Wire, Natural, 15 yd
Buy the Wrapit Wire if you want soft, bare copper for wrapping stones, weaving, or practice work where a bright copper finish matters. Buy the Artistic Wire 20 gauge if you want a stiffer, tarnish-resistant silver-toned wire for structural pieces and clasps. The Wrapit costs $14.99 at Fire Mountain Gems and Beads as of November 3, 2026, for about 130 feet; the Artistic Wire costs $5.75 at eBay as of the same date for 15 yards (45 feet). Per foot, the Artistic Wire is the cheaper buy, but you get far less wire and a plated finish rather than solid copper.
