$36au(about $27us) including postage - and I love every cm, every gram of the 4.9 kilos, every twist that is going to be formed.
What is it you ask? Copper wire! And I love copper soooooo much. The large wooden reel (gotta love the reel) - is about 28 guage and will last a life time. The dark red to the right is about 14 guage and the others fit inbetween.
This glorious wire is insulation wire found in a shed and at this stage is still covered in dust. I am not sure if I will be able to use it for jewellery - but for assemblage, pure bliss! The copper goes all the way through. The reels are gorgeous. And I do not have time to play today. Aaaagh, I am itching to get my fingers on it.

Hi there Julie
What a perfect purchase for you!!!
I know you will get so much use from these rolls of copper. And what a bargain too (yay).
Love all the colors but the red is my favorite.
Can't wait to see what your creative mind comes up with.
I can understand you itching to play with it!

Simply scrummy! Ohhhh would love to know where you got them from and if there's any more!
Yummmmmmmmm. Nat
Sorry Nat it was a one off from a man having an on-line garage sale - I don't think he had considered jewellery and the like. I should feel guilty - I really should ...
Wow what a find Julie..> Lucky you. Like I say, scrummy!
