Twenty-five metres of wire that bends by hand and stays where you put it

3mm thick. 25 metre roll. Aluminium. Gold finish. $33.30 - $1.33 a metre.

3mm aluminium is the sweet spot for a classroom. Thin enough that a student bends it with their fingers, thick enough that the shape holds when they let go. Steel wire needs pliers and springs back; thin craft wire collapses. This one does what a hand tells it to.

An armature is the reason most clay sculptures survive. Wire inside a figure holds the arms out, keeps the neck up and stops the whole thing sagging while it dries. Without one, a standing figure becomes a slumped one overnight.

Aluminium does not corrode, so a piece with wire inside it does not stain from the inside out years later.

The gold finish means it can be the artwork. Wire sculpture, contour drawing in three dimensions, and wrapped or woven forms all look finished in gold rather than looking like a skeleton.

25 metres is a class set. At $1.33 a metre a student can cut a length, get it wrong, and cut another.

It works with clay, papier-mache and textiles, which is most of what a sculpture unit uses.

One practical warning

Cut wire ends are sharp. Zart does not say so, but they are - so cut it yourself for younger students, or fold the ends back. That is a handling note rather than a product fault, and it applies to every armature wire on the market.

Yes - that is what the gold finish is for. Wire sculpture and three-dimensional contour drawing look finished in gold rather than looking like a skeleton.
The wire itself bends and cuts by hand, but cut ends are sharp. Cut it yourself for younger students or fold the ends back. That applies to every armature wire, not just this one.
No. Aluminium is non-corrosive, so a piece with wire inside it will not stain from the inside out years later.
