This Company is also known as the Wire Workers' Company, and there is evidence that these two separate crafts were joined by 1425. Although the Company did not receive a charter until 1670, the two crafts had previously sought protection from the Girdlers' and Ironmongers' Companies.

The Company's records were deposited in the Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section during the 1950s, 2002 and 2006. The Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section merged with London Metropolitan Archives in 2008.
