Description
Rose gold braid over a round two core flex gives this cable a soft pink-gold sheen, warm rather than brassy, that picks up the light without glaring under it. The conductors are 0.75mm and the finished cord sits at 6mm across, with the weave pulled tight and even along its whole run. It is VDE approved. Order the number of metres you need and it comes as one continuous length, so there is nothing to join partway.
We reach for this when the flex itself is part of the look: a pendant hanging over a kitchen island, a bare lampholder above a bedside table, a floor lamp whose cord trails across pale boards. Braided cord suits older rooms and warm palettes, and rose gold sits particularly well with brushed brass, copper and blush ceramics. It is worth having on the shelf if you restore or rewire lamps, since a fresh length of braid does more for a tired piece than almost anything else you can buy for the money. Cut lengths take a little care at the ends to keep the weave from fraying.
The braided sleeve wraps a flexible core, so the cord coils and drapes readily and does not hold kinks the way stiffer flat cable can. Keep it dry, away from solvents and polish, both of which stain the weave and flatten its sheen; a dry cloth drawn along the length lifts dust well enough, and a soft brush works into the texture if it has been sitting in a dusty workshop. It carries a one year warranty. We stock the same braid in blue, purple, lime green, red, black and white if you want the cord to disappear into a ceiling or stand out against it, along with plain clear and black flex in the range.

Frequently Asked
How is the cable supplied if I order several metres?
It is sold by the metre and supplied as one continuous length, so ordering four gives you a single 4m run rather than four separate pieces.
What size are the conductors?
There are two cores at 0.75mm each, inside a braided sleeve that brings the overall diameter to 6mm.
Is it approved for use in the UK?
Yes, it is VDE approved.
How do I stop the braid fraying when I cut it?
Wrap a turn of tape around the cut point before you cut, then trim through the tape. Keep the tape in place while you work on the ends.
Can I clean marks off the braid?
Dust comes away with a dry cloth or a soft brush worked along the weave. Avoid water, solvents and metal polish, as they mark the fibres permanently.
Does it come in other colours?
Yes, the same braided cable is stocked in blue, purple, lime green, red, black and white.
