Brass
Beautiful and versatile, brass is an attractive and affordable option for pieces with a gold-toned finish. These designs utlize brass wire and components, combined with offerings from nature such as semi-precious gemstones and pearls. Some of the pieces have been "aged" or treated to produce a patina. Other components have been left "raw", still others have been polished to a gleaming golden shine. The components will take on a patina over time--you can influence the look of your piece in the long term by deciding how much to polish vs. how much natural patina to promote.
