Jewellery Brass Jump Rings

Jewellery Brass is an alloy of brass that was created for its beauty. It's made from 85% copper and 15% zinc. This is a higher copper content that yellow brass which sometimes has as little as 60% copper.

Freshly polished jewellery brass is very close to the color of high carat gold.

Sometimes known as Red Brass, Merlin's Gold or Nu Gold.

Cleaning Jewellery Brass Rings

Place your rings in a mixture of water, white vinegar and salt. Length of time depends on the depth of the tarnish, but usually 30-60seconds is enough, take out and rinse thoroughly under running water. Dry.

For that extra shine you can then place them in your tumbler with some water and dish washing detergent......hmmm, pretty!
