I have never seen any advertised Lyndsay - not that that means it's not out there somewhere...

You might find this article useful though...[Ganoksin] Jewelry Making - Making filigree wire

I think most people make their own..it was how I was taught.
Top tip for filigree, make ultra fine solder by filing your solder and using the dust!
Try the book Silver Threads, making filigree jewellery

Emma,

Sorry for the delay in replying. I have that book and the author had spoken about using commercial twist wire. I just thought it might have been an easier option. I'm just not great at getting an even twist in wire.

Guess I just need to persevere.

Thanks for the tips.
