Anodized Niobium (niobium jewelry wire)

Anodized Niobium

Anodized niobium is strong, corrosion resistant and hypo-allergenic. The colors are beautifully vibrant. In raw wire form it is a dark silver/grey color.

Our 18g and 20g niobium has the same strength as 1/2 hard sterling silver. The 22g niobium is slightly more pliable and has the same strength as 1/2 hard fine silver.

Niobium weighs about the same as most common chainmail materials - its 6% heavier than steel and 22% lighter than sterling silver.

Anodizing niobium creates an oxide layer. The thickness of this layer creates the colors.

The color may vary from batch to batch slightly, but the alloy we have is pretty consistent so it will not vary a lot.

The anodized layer has appropriate properties for jewelry, but it is not indestructible. It can wear off with rubbing against a harder material - care must be taken with pliers as well.

In order to provide a consistent product we are listing the colors by a number system. The name of the color is for reference only.
