A 0.4mm (26 gauge) silver plated wire on a 25-metre reel, with a 100% copper core that is certified nickel free before plating. It is thin and flexible, easy on the fingers, and stiffens as you handle it through work hardening. It suits wire wrapping, coiling and floral work where the wire is meant to show, and twisting it with itself makes sturdy flower stems. It is a fine-gauge craft wire rather than a structural one, so it bends easily but will snap if flexed repeatedly at the same point.

This 0.4mm silver plated wire is thin but strong, made for crafting and jewellery making. It is used to wire or wrap components together without taking up much space. At this diameter, a coil or wrap can be left visible as part of the design.
The wire is very flexible and easy on the fingers when worked. If it is bent repeatedly at the same point, it will snap, though it takes some effort. Like all wire, it becomes harder and stiffer as it is handled, which is called work hardening.
Twisting the wire with itself makes stems for flowers in floral designs. It was used for the flowers on tiaras in a tiara making book.
