Abstract: A wire connection system that includes an arcuate wire and a pair of tube ends; or two or more wires, at least one wire being arcuate, and two or more pairs of tube ends. Each wire has a first wire end that fits into a first tube end and has a second wire end that fits into a second tube end, where two tube ends in a connected pair are either rigidly attached to each other or are partly free to rotate relative to each other. One or both tube ends in a connected pair has an interior including an annular region of easily compressible material, with an annular region aperture having an aperture diameter that is less than the diameter of the wire end accepted by the tube end. Alternatively, friction between at least one tube end and a temporarily deformed wire end received by the tube end holds the wire end in place. The system can serve as a pendant, an earring, a neckpiece, a bracelet or other decorative item for jewelry, beads, cards, placards or other appendages.

Abstract: The present invention reaches a wire connection system that includes a wire and two tubes. The wire has one end that is threaded and fits into one of the tubes that is also threaded. The tubes are connected and oriented between 45.degree. and 135.degree. with respect to one another. The second end of the wire can be removably secured in the second tube thereby preventing rotation of the first tube. In the preferred embodiment, the tubes are perpendicular to one another.
