What are you looking for?

Fine gold-plated French wire 0,7 mm — 35,5 cm

The small golden spring you only notice when looking closely, and without which a strung bead necklace wears at the ends. Cannetille — or french wire — is a thread of metal wound in a very tight spiral, hollow at the center: the silk thread passes through it and is sheathed over the last few millimeters, where it rubs against the clasp ring.

Features:

  • Material: gold-colored metal thread wound in a spiral
  • Diameter: 0.7 mm (fine grade)
  • Length: 35.5 cm (14 inches)
  • Compatibility: 0.35 mm silk thread

The workshop tip:

Allow 8 to 10 mm of cannnetille per end, cut with fine wire cutters — never with scissors, which crush the spiral. Thread the cut length onto the silk thread, pass the thread through the clasp ring, then return through the first bead: the cannnetille bends into a crescent and the loop takes its place. Tighten smoothly; a thread pulled sharply stretches the spiral and makes it gape. If it opens like an accordion, the loop was too wide: recut a fresh piece rather than compressing it again.

Fragile between the fingers, sturdy once in place: handle it by the cut length rather than by the end, and keep the remaining strip rolled up in its pouch.

Guide to good practices for caring for your jewelry

Guide to good practices for caring for your jewelry

Few objects are imperishable and last over time. Your jewelry, regardless of price or composition, will live with you and thus show signs of aging. This is perfectly normal and does not call the quality into question.

Here are some tips to keep them in the best condition for as long as possible.

  • Remove your jewelry before washing, bathing, and during beauty routines (cream, perfume...). This will help preserve the gold plating in good condition and not damage the Gemstones. Rest assured, the Prémium Perles Corner metals are of very good quality and will survive occasional exposure to water.
  • Avoid chemical products. Contrary to what one might think, doing the dishes, swimming in chlorinated water... does not go well with metals and stones.
  • Be sure to store your jewelry properly. When you are not wearing them, we recommend storing your jewelry in a case, a suede pouch, a zip bag, and especially not in a humid room like the bathroom.
  • Clean your jewelry with soapy water. Avoid chemical products or toothpaste, which could be too harsh for metals and stones. Regular maintenance, once a month, is sufficient. Be sure to dry them well afterward.

In conclusion, your jewelry, like all things, are objects that need attention and respect so you can enjoy them for as long as possible. With these few tips, they should accompany you for years!
