How SilverSilk Pipe Chain is Made
Pipe Chain is crafted by knitting 32‑gauge, 99.9% copper wire (the thickness of human hair) around a 3 mm silicone tubing. This creates a strong, flexible cord with a 1.5 mm hollow core—perfect for threading leather, beading wire, or craft wire through it. The wire is permanently enameled for tarnish resistance, and the silicone remains soft yet shape-retentive. Each chain is machine-stitched by six precise latch-hook needles, delivering a consistent, cut-to-length-ready result with no fraying or unraveling.
