CRAFTAURUM · METALS & MATERIALS
Custom Jewelry Materials Selection
Material selection influences jewelry appearance, weight, wear characteristics, production technique and quotation. Sterling silver, karat gold, brass, stainless steel and decorative components can be considered where suitable for the intended design.
We recommend confirming material composition and product specifications before making pricing or compliance claims for any new collection.
Karat Gold & Fine Jewelry Directions
Karat gold is an alloy with a specified proportion of gold, commonly expressed through values such as 14K or 18K. The choice affects color, material cost and construction. Discuss which metal specifications may suit your project.
925 Sterling Silver
Sterling silver contains 92.5% silver by mass, with the remainder made up of other metals. It is widely used for detailed rings, necklaces, earrings and bracelets. Consider surface finishes and care requirements during development.
Brass, Stainless Steel & Alternative Metals
Brass and stainless steel have different colors, workability, corrosion characteristics and processing requirements. Their suitability depends on design, finish, skin-contact expectations and target market. Material options should be confirmed per product.
Pearls, Gemstones & Mixed-Material Designs
Pearls and stones introduce choices around shape, luster, size and setting. When combining them with metal components, review material compatibility, attachment method and final appearance during the sample stage.
