Sterling Silver Wire Guardians pk10 Pairs

These sterling silver wire guardians (also known as thread protectors) are a really clever alternative to using gimp wire.

These prevent your stringing material from wearing against your findings.

How to use: To finish your necklace; thread a crimp on after your last bead and simply feed your thread or wire through the protector. Slip your clasp, necklet-end or jump ring over the protector and the thread together, pass the thread back down through your crimp and fasten as you would normally.

• Sold in packs of 10 pairs
