- They are made of aluminum which is coiled first then anodized before being cut. During the process a microscopic hard porous layer is "grown" on the surface of the metal which is then dyed. This colored layer is very tough and won't scratch off as easily as cheaper coated rings. Each batch does include some defects due to how they are anodized. We always include extra in each half pound to account for any defects you may receive! Every ring will have an un-anodized area where the cut is made, so when you close them they should appear as a solid color. Doing the anodizing in this way ensure the brightest finish possible versus bulk anodizing loose rings.
- The cut is made with an extremely precise jewelers saw(0.008" thick) to make perfect closings.
- Aluminum is easy to work with, is light, and still quite strong! If you have any questions feel free to contact us.
- Ring counts are approximate based on weight, color shades and counts can vary from batch to batch and color to color.
