Brass is a metal alloy, composed of copper and zinc. There are several varieties of tone and color, depending on the amount of zinc used. The color can range from a pale yellow to a deep golden brown. Brass jewelry often resembles a 14 karat gold color, and so can be used to get the look of gold at a fraction of the price.
As brass is a relatively cheap metal to work with, designers can be much more creative, and make much bolder pieces. Brass is often combined with sterling silver to get a beautiful two tone look. Brass can be used to make bold statement cuffs, or chain necklaces, or even earrings. It looks great when worn with any kind of outfit, as it can look edgy, or elegant, depending on the look you are after.

brass earrings
There are many styles of brass earrings, from studs to long earrings. The studs should use a sterling silver post to go through the ear, as brass can react with your skin. A stud earring can consist of anything from a plain brass disc to a more intricately carved design. Color can be added with a cubic zircon stone set in a bezel, or with an enamel design painted on.
Long earrings can be created with a combination of brass and resin beads. These look great when worn with an evening outfit, as they bring a touch of elegance to your style.
brass bracelets
There are three basic types of bracelet, the cuff, bangle and the charm bracelet. All of these styles can look just as great in brass as they do in sterling silver. Large statement cuffs can be created using full brass or combined with enamel. A large engraved cross placed in the center of a wide hammered brass cuff, with a few accent stones around it, makes for a stunning piece of jewelry.
Bangles can be made out of brass wire, either plain, hammered or twisted. Splashes of color can be added with the use of enamel. These can be worn alone or in a stack up your wrist, and are very popular with the younger generation.

brass necklaces
Brass jewelry necklaces can come in a variety of styles, from chokers to chains. In Bali, the silver smiths can use brass to create handmade chains, just like the ones that they create in sterling silver. As brass is a stronger metal, some of the smaller chain styles do not work, but there are plenty of plain link as well as twisted link chains available. These chains can be worn alone, with many chains together, or can be used to hang a pendant.
Brass wire can be utilized to create wire wrapped necklaces, using the wide variety of beads available here. Black beads look particularly stunning used with this yellow colored metal. These beaded necklaces can be worn long, or doubled up to create a layered look.
how to care for your brass jewelry
Brass tends to change color to a dull brown fairly quickly. This is great if you want a more antique look, but not everyone likes this. If you want to keep the cleaner, yellower tone, it is advisable to put a lacquer over the top of the brass. This helps to seal in the color, and prevent tarnishing. This lacquer does not last forever, but should last relatively long.
As with other metals, make sure you keep your brass jewelry away from chemical products such as perfumes, and body lotions. These can react with the metal and turn it a different color Also do not wear your brass jewelry when swimming, as the chlorine will react with the metal.
