Making Connections
TierraCast has expanded their already extensive line of lead-free plated findings with the new Connections collection. Working with feedback from designers, TierraCast created innovative options for connecting and designing jewelry. This versatile line of findings is available in copper, silver or gold plating.

Glue pads
|
|
Glue pads, another innovation, are perfect for creating mixed-media jewelry with dice, dominoes or other trinkets with no holes. Enhanced mechanical adhesion assures that glued items bond securely to the finding for long wear.

Big bails, caps and cones feature a .25-inch inner diameter, making them perfect for use with heavy cord, chain maille, Viking knit and popular Pandora, Chamilia, Troll and Biagi charm bracelets.

Bali-Style Separator Bars

Thinner, Bali-style separator bars are the perfect enhancements to any multi-strand design and a perfect match for TierraCast's existing line of heishi spacers. Bars are available with two, three, four or five holes and are sure to suit any designer's needs.

Looped Heishi
|
|
For fans of multi-strand designs with embellishment, looped heishi are sure to cause a design stir. Loops on each side of the metal heishi provide a perfect anchor point to add dangling elements or attach other components. Two sizes are available to assure the right scale of finding for every design.

TierraCast sells to wholesale customers exclusively, but is carried by most bead stores I've visited. Their high-quality products completely changed my mind about using plated findings and are used in almost every design I create. If you love metal, you're sure to be a fan of this quality-conscious American company. View the Connections line or the whole catalog at www.TierraCast.com.
