Square Roots! Did you know that all Square wire started out being round? The square shape is created by pulling round wire through a square drawing die. Many jewelry artists prefer using square wire, due to the beautiful “diamond-cut” effect that is created by twisting this wire. This wire is perfect for forming bends and spirals.
