We use Jewelers Brass (alloy C226). It looks very similar to yellow gold when its not tarnished! The strength and corrosion properties are similar to yellow brass – jeweler’s brass is about 8% stronger and costs a bit more. Brass tarnishes but can be cleaned with an ultrasonic cleaner or any commercially available brass cleaner - like Brasso. Most brass wire you will find is soft, but our brass is 1/2 hard temper which combines strength with workability.
MC-BJR-22564 and MC-BJR-2218 have been discontinued and will not be re-stocked once our current stock has been sold.
