[Source] 14k pattern wire

I have a repair where I have to replace the gold balls which span
the circumference of a ring. Upon inspection I see the “balls” used
to actually be more of like a granulated flower style pattern. The
customer said replace the balls on the ring. Does anyone know of a
source for pattern wire? Any advise on how some of you would
proceed would be very appreciated!

Hi Cindy,

Without seeing the ring, I don’t know if the patterns are the same,
but you might try Stuller’s new Metal Book. There are a number of
different bead wires listed in it.
