Sterling Silver 3mm 22 gauge Jump Rings, 10 Pieces

To open and close a jump ring correctly, you will need two pairs of jewelry pliers, such as chain nose or flat nose pliers. Here are the steps to follow: Hold one side of the jump ring with one pair of pliers, making sure the opening is facing upward. Use the other pair of pliers to hold the other side. Twist one side towards you and the other side away from you gently to open the jump ring without distorting its shape. Attach the desired components, such as a clasp, an ear wire, or a bead. To close the jump ring, twist the sides back in place so that you close the gap and return the loop to its original closed position. Make sure the ends meet flush and do not leave a gap.
