Does anybody know where I could buy some plain sterling ends to glue leather cord into?

I'm sure I have seen them on finished pieces of jewellery but can't seem to find anything for sale that doesn't have a hook or loop on the end...

Thanks x

What size did you want? I can happily make them in anything up to about 6.5mm inner diameter.

Sorry George, I forgot that I had posted this message! Whoops  ::)

Thanks very much, just having a little play with some cords for a bracelet, and i'm still not sure which to use at the moment. Leather seems to be out, and I have currently got some 1mm nylon on order which maay be too thin for silver ends?
Once I have sussed out what I need to use i'll let you know, many thanks x

No worries! I have weeks on end when I can't remember what I've done from one day to the next :)

1mm's not a problem at all - these are all 1mm. They can have loops on (obviously!) if needed :)

I'm sure this is the pic I saw that inspired me with the cord ends in the first place, it is rather gorge isnt it  :)

I like the necklace pictured here.  The colours are lovely and the silver end bits are gorgeous.
