The perfect addition to any lamp or small appliance such as fans and radios, this beautiful fabric covered electrical wire is a great way to replicate that vintage industrial age charm.

This is BRAND NEW reproduction antique style 2-wire, 18 gauge (known as 18/2). Each wire is a stranded copper insulated wire (much like standard wiring of today) then covered in a braided rayon fabric. The fabric is smooth and shiny, similar to old industrial age silk covered wiring.

Wine Wire

Fantastic quality. It was my first time buying cloth wire for a project and I was a little nervous about the quality. After opening my package a can tell you that you have nothing to worry about. It's a little trickier to work with, but a little superglue or some tape will keep the cloth from unraveling. Now that I've tested it out on one lamp, I'm going to be wiring the rest of my antique lamps with this wire.
