I get a ton of email about one of the smallest and least fancy jewelry components there are - jump rings.
Jump rings may be small and not the most glamorous items used in jewelry making, but man, they are important!
I finally sat down and took the time to map out the issues around these little puppies and offer some solutions that may help you with your own jump ring issues: Fixing Jump Ring Problems.

Is there a particular manufacturer of jump rings you recommend and also to stay clear of?

http://www.urbanmaille.com makes fabulous rings. I can’t think of a specific vendor to steer clear off, but pretty much, if they are cheaply prices, they are probably cheaply made.

Thanks Tammy there is quite a range on there of various silvers, golds and even copper. I have only used Sterling silver up until now so it kind of exciting to have all these options to play around with. Thanks. Very helpful Blog.
