There is tarnishing on the wire, but it is not very fast
5/5

Patina and oxidizing are two great ways to add color! I found it to be the first copper I ever found in bulk without a coating, which is crucial for patinating and oxidizing metals
5/5

A beautiful oxidation and polish is achieved by the wire! Here are a few photos for you to see. am impressed with the manner in which the wire is wound on the spools, with no visible signs of stretching. It has been consistent in size even though all wire in spools has variations of size with sizing (especially dead soft wire). Viking Knit created designs that sometimes required a few extra details, so this wire was perfect for my needs. In smaller gauges, Small Parts wire works great for our patterns. I just had to deal with a small issue. I am a fan of all of them and would purchase all of them.

The dimensions of the piece are smaller With this, I am making masks and am not satisfied with them
5/5

Although I prefer the thicker wire from the store, I'm willing to use it in place of these thin wires. In spite of this, the price was still reasonable.

There is a mistake in the gauge
3/5

This wire has been in my possession for over a year, and now I realize it is not an 18 gauge, but a 20 gauge. A wire I recently purchased from them was marked 18 gauge on top of a 20 gauge sticker. I'm not sure what happened, but the wire had a sticker that read 18 gauge. The only problem is that I need 18 gauge, but this company does not offer it. I would give them another chance, but I am very disappointed. I just didn't get what I was expecting. Quality is good, but I didn't get what I ordered.

The 16 gauge sticker was used instead of the 18 gauge sticker by whomever shipped it
4/5

Since it is usable, I will keep it, and it is good quality, but I had to reorder a thicker gauge, so I hope the next shipment will be correct, since I need it to teach a class and I am on a tight schedule.

The way I had described it
3/5

In terms of the wire itself, it's There was a bending at the end of the spool and one of the disks was broken off completely. Due to poor packaging and handling, the wire did bend a little, but so far it appears to be working. Apart from that, it's a great wire so I've given it a four out of five star rating.
