The Beadsmith offers essential jewelry making findings and components, such as bails, lever backs, wire protectors and jump rings, curated specifically for jewelry designers and DIY creators. Jump rings are essential to jewelry making, allowing you to connect different components, such as clasps, pendants and other closures, to your jewelry pieces.Our jump rings are very easy to use. Grip your jump ring in two pairs of flat nose pliers, one either side of the cut in the loop. Gently twist the two sides in opposite directions, until they are opened just enough to slide on your embellishments. Close the jump ring by carefully twisting each side back together. Take care not to pull too hard or repeatedly twist the rings open and close. This will weaken the metal and compromise its strengthThe jump rings come in several sizes, and four vibrant finishes, including gold, silver, copper and rose gold. These are bulk packs of findings, which are great for jewelry designers, metalsmiths and DIY crafters. The Beadsmith jump rings are great for making unique jewelry for friends or family. Design wearable art that can be gifted for special occasions such as a birthday or holiday. These high-quality basics are great for daily inspiration or whenever the creative mood strikes.
