Square Craft Wire FAQs

What is Square Craft Wire?

Square Craft Wire is jewellery wire with a four-sided square cross-section, offering crisp edges and the ability to catch light in a unique way. It is often used for decorative wraps, bezels, and architectural wirework.

What is Square Craft Wire used for?

Square wire is ideal for bezel wraps around stones, precision wirework, architectural designs, wire frames, and statement jewellery. It provides clean definition and a professional look.

What is the difference between Square Wire and Round Wire?

Square wire has a four-sided profile that reflects light and creates crisp edges in your designs. Round wire has a circular profile and is more versatile for coiling, scrollwork, and general wire wrapping. Many artists combine both for visual contrast.

Is Square Craft Wire easy to work with?

Square wire is slightly more advanced than round wire because its edges must be handled carefully to maintain clean lines. With the right techniques and tools, it is very rewarding to work with — offering results that stand out.

Can I use Square Craft Wire with gemstones and beads?

Yes! Square wire is perfect for bezel wrapping cabochons and structural bead frames. It is not typically used for threading through beads, but rather for framing or wrapping around them.

What tools should I use with Square Craft Wire?

Use chain-nose pliers for precise shaping, nylon-jaw pliers for straightening, and wire cutters suitable for your wire gauge. Take care to maintain sharp corners and avoid marring the wire.

Can I twist Square Craft Wire?

Yes! Twisting square wire creates a beautiful spiral texture that reflects light in an eye-catching way. Many artists combine twisted square wire with round or plain square wire for added interest.

Does Square Craft Wire tarnish?

Depending on the metal type, square craft wire may be plated (tarnish resistant) or raw (which will oxidise naturally over time). Many designers choose to oxidise square wire deliberately to enhance its textural effects.

Is your Square Craft Wire ethically sourced?

Yes. We source our Square Craft Wire from trusted, responsible suppliers who meet our standards for ethical production and consistent quality.

Do you offer discounts on larger orders of Square Craft Wire?

Yes! In addition to our site-wide offers — 15% off your first order, free UK postage on orders over £25, and 10% off orders over £50 — we can discuss bulk discounts. Please contact us to learn more.
