Twisted Tornado Crimp®

Twisted Tornado Crimp Beaders seem to be set in their ways regarding crimping pliers.  Some beaders refuse to use them.  Other beaders use them exclusively.  With the Twisted Tornado Crimp from Via Murano, there is no decision to be made.  A twist in the crimp not only makes the finding very secure when it is flattened with chain-nose pliers, but also adds a pretty design element to your jewelry.  The Tornado Crimp is available in sterling silver or gold-filled and can be used with .014 Soft Flex .018 Beadalon, or .019 Soft Touch.  Buy the Twisted Tornado Crimp at your local bead shop or from Via Murano, www.viamurano.com.
