What is gold filled (laminated gold)?
Gold filled is the treatment of a metal (often brass) using a mechanical process to apply a layer of gold alloy of varying titration. The weight of gold alloy corresponds to 1/20 of the total weight of the product.
For the more inquisitive, we'll explain the differences between gold filled and gold plated, so you can choose the material that's right for you.
What can I do with Gold Filled beads?
These beads are ideal for many creative projects: you can slip them onto a thin cord to make a minimalist bracelet, use them as spacers in a natural stone necklace, or position them on hoop earrings to add a refined golden touch. They are also ideal for mounting on elastic thread or for multi-strand creations. Thanks to their large hole, they can also be used as decorative stops for primers such as rods, nails or slightly stronger metal wires. Their warm finish makes them easy to combine with other materials such as heishi beads, mother-of-pearl, glass or crystal, for a bright, modern look.
