Sorry, I'm somewhat puzzled by the wire you're referring to. Perhaps a photo with a red arrow might help. :thumbup: Or, try to cut and paste a translation from Google's Translation tool, French to English :)

Ahh, loops for wire that then allows foliage to be attached.
Assuming the loops were welded onto the armour, and were field created, I would go with a small paper clip or decorative chain link cut in half.
The wire I would use stuff called “ beading wire”
It’s used to make decorative jewellery, beading is a craft/hobby so should be available widely .
Whatever looks right by eye is all you need to figure out !!
