I made these Fish ear hooks using 20 gauge 14/20 gold filled wire. The ends have been sanded and smoothed for a nice comfortable fit.
Measurements:
Length:1 1/4" (33mm)
Top width: 1/2" (12mm)
These are sold by the pair.
If you need a larger quantity than what is available, please contact me so that arrangements can be made. Please note, I make these ear wires by hand, there may be some slight variations from pair to pair.
Why I choose to use 14/20 gold filled and what it means:
Gold filled is made by using heat and pressure to fuse a layer of solid Gold onto a base metal (usually brass). I use 14/20 gold filled wire to create my pieces. What that means is that 1/20 (5%) of the metal weight is 14 karat solid gold, the same applies to 12/20 gold filled, which would contain 1/20 (5%) of 12 karat gold and so on.. I choose to work with 14/20 gold filled because of it's beautiful rich color and the fact that is wears just like real gold. It has beauty, durability, and strength. It is a quality alternative to solid gold at an affordable price.
