On Beads of Prayer has tried every wire there is and this is the highest quality and worth every penny for durable sets of prayer beads, necklaces, and bracelets. Their wire is made of micro stainless steel wires coated in nylon for the highest quality of durability and flexibility. For prayer beads, we use the medium weight which is comprised of 49 coated strands. When working with pearls, it’s best to use the fine weight wire. Contact SofFlex Company for all your wire and bead needs.
