Jump rings are jewelry-making essentials. Their range in size makes them ideal for finishing many silver chains. The small sizes are especially perfect for delicate chains. The variety in wire gauges in this series, 16-22g, also make them ideal for fitting through a variety of openings – from chain, to clasps, to charms. They’re great for connecting dangling elements to stud earrings. Its small size allows you to get the movement you’re looking for without overwhelming the star of the show – the different elements! Use the larger jump rings in this series as stand-alone link connectors or turn them into decorative elements of their own. Tempered to a #4 extra hard, this series of jump rings is sturdy and reliable. They won’t distort in shape when opening and closing and are tough enough to stay closed with regular wear.

Remember when closing jump rings to brush the ends back and forth past each other and back into place. We do not recommend pulling the opening apart by simply expanding the gap. This will distort the round shape of the jump ring and make it harder for the ring to stay closed in place. Check out our blog post that compares making your finding vs. buying them.
