Would anyone know of a source for a patterned wire (preferably
14k, but I could work with any metal) with a sea or beach shell
motif? I have only Rio Grande catalogues.

Try Metalliferous in NYC at 34 West 46th Street. Their phone #
is: 212-944-0909. They have a good supply of patterned metal
and a nice catalogue. Also try Myron Toback on West 47th Street
in NYC (I don’t have the number handy). I don’t think they have
a catalogue, though.
I know that pattern wire is sometimes hard to find in just what
you want. An alternative to purchasing the wire is to purchase
the pattern roll and run the wire through your own rolling mill.
I checked Rosenthal’s (Miami) catalog and, although they carry
lots of pattern rolls, they don’t have seashore ones. However,
they might be able to check their supplier or refer you. If you
call them, make sure that you speak with someone knowledgeable.
There is a company in Warwick, Rhode Island for your wire needs.
Fell is a good company for many needs, however Millard Wire
Company has many styles and offerings. They have a catalog about
3/4 of an inch thick, with patterns for the imagination.
