Rings by the Weave Inch
Flower Chain Inchpacks
About Choosing the Gauge
16g and 18g round rings are generally the easiest rings to weave, so they're usually the best sizes for learning a new weave and for beginners.
Tiny 26g and 24g rings are challenging to weave, as are heavy 12g and 10g rings, and all shaped rings (square, diamond, etc.) so we recommend avoiding those until you're an experienced mailler.
Prices shown below are per inch of chain.
Ring Sizes
These are the round-wire jump ring sizes I use for Flower Chain, in 12g to 22g AWG. For each gauge you get the inner diameter (ID) in millimeters and rings per inch (RPI), so you can work out how many rings your piece needs. Every ring is saw cut by hand in our studio, as we've done since 2003. To try the weave before you commit, start with Flower Chain inchpacks, the Flower Chain bracelet kit, or round wire jump rings.
