3 to 1 findings

Sep 14, 2003 22 Replies

I'm looking for a connector (?) that has one hole on one side (to put three strands in), and three holes on the other side (come out through a row of three holes) in gold filled. What is this thing called (so I can search for them)?

It's called a 3:1 connector. I don't think I've ever seen one in gold filled, although they are marginally more available in vermeil.

I searched high and low and could not find anything! :( I hope others have better luck.

I have seen them called exactly what you call them in your subject line...

I have got some in my box but they are not gold filled. I think they maybe silver plated. Shirley

Thanks so much, Shirley, but it's specifically gold filled that I want. Not having any luck so far. Just silver and vermeil, and pewter.

Thanks Vicki, those are just the sort of thing I'd like, and simpler, but in gold filled.

i should have checked for other responses first. i've been gone two days - someone would have answered. but they might be something Nicole would know where to find, what with her job and all . . .

What a great link! Thanks for posting it.

Deirdre

Thanks, Steve,

Great link. But isn't a 3 strand end bar a bar with three loops on one side to attach strands, and a loop in the middle on the other side to attach a clasp (or chain) to? I'm looking for something to put three threads (within one strand) into one end that will come out the other side fanned out through three holes.

Tina: I think Village Originals has pics of what you want; I tried to send you an email at yahoo with the pics, but it was returned.

Thanks Lisa,

Could you please send it again at my personal email? snipped-for-privacy@ptialaska.net

I have many many three strand end bars in Gold, also 5-strand and two strand. In silver I have lots of 5-strand in smaller sizes. You can see the gold 3-strand if you go to my tutorial at:
