Beadalon & Nickel

[cookiedough38]

Does anyone know if beadalon contains nickel? I have a piece of jewellery to make for someone who is allergic to it. I am using st silver findings, but not sure on the thread.

I would appreciate any help

Many thanks

Interesting point and one without an easy answer it seems. Beadalon do have a question page, you could try asking there. Or could you use something else? ie. illusion cord, fishing line etc. which definitely won't have nickel.

I did think that about but I am really not a fan of illusion wire

you can get sterling silver soft flex......

I think beadalon is made using stainless steel and nylon, so it should be ok.

Beadalon wire (and other brands) are made from nylon coated twisted steel, and there's no nickel in steel, so you're OK.

Hi

Beadalon state their wire is nickel-free stainless steel, nylon covered and plated with silver, gold etc.
