144 Head Pins .029dia X 4 Inch Gold Plating Over Brass Standard 21 Gauge Wire Beadsmith Headpins

The Beadsmith's extra-long head pins: 144 gold plated brass pins, 4 inches long in 21 gauge (.029 inch) wire. The extra length is for long bead stacks, tassel-style drops and generous wrapped loops.

Price range: See on Amazon

What we liked

  • + 4 inch length handles tall bead stacks and leaves plenty of wire for multi-wrap loops
  • + Brass core forms smooth loops more easily than iron or steel pins
  • + A full gross of 144 pins from an established beading tool brand

Trade-offs

  • - Costs more than most bulk packs, and much of each pin is trimmed off on short dangles
  • - Gold plated finish only in this listing, with no silver-tone option
