Brass beads with a shimmering surface, called so-called stardust, with a diameter of 4 mm and a hole for a thread with a diameter of 1 mm.

Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, which has always been very popular in jewelry, thanks to its good ductility, hardness, corrosion resistance and, compared to pure metals, even a pleasant price. In its raw unplated state, brass has a beautiful golden color, thanks to which it is sometimes confused with gold. Over time, however, brass is passivated (it is coated with a layer of oxides that protect it from corrosion) and changes color from yellow-green to yellow-brown to green to green-brown. This layer is popularly called copper and is formed mainly by a thin layer of alkaline malachite. Therefore, brass is widely plated to ensure better color fastness.

The manufacturer has provided detailed information on the composition of the surface layer of the product and guarantees zero allergenic nickel content. In addition, he substantiated his claim with a certificate from elementary analysis.

Due to the color setting of the monitor, the color of the goods may differ slightly from reality.
