Guide Review
Beadalon 7 Gold Color
Finally, a bead stringing wire that will shine as nicely as out beading projects! 

This is a really lovely touch 0 adding dimension to your projects.  I like that you can make up an airy design, and the wire will add so much to the finished piece! A bright, shiny gold, not the least bit brassy, it will look like a much more expensive piece than it when you use this.  Coasted to keep it from tarnishing, it will remain nice looking for a long time. 

The only drawback I found with this wire is that it is stiffer than regular Beadalon 7 wire, and was rather hard on my crimp beads.  I broke several before I got the hang of crimping with this "tough customer". I do, however, think that the great look of this product will outweigh the drawbacks and would not hesitate to recommend it.  

Now, if Beadalon will only do the same with silver, I'll be a happy beader!
