Best sellers · Brass & Copper
Six designs per material that buyers reorder rather than replace: the shapes that sell without a campaign behind them. Every one is a stock item, so you can test a market before you commit tooling to your own design.
Range
Stock lines, 30 pcs per design for brass & copper. Click any piece for its weight, size range and finish options.
A cast brass ring with a hand-set cubic zirconia centre, plated in gold, rose gold or rhodium. It delivers the stone-set look at the lowest cost in the range, because the metal is cheap and the setting, not the casting, is the operation that carries the price. Stone size and setting style are quoted as their own lines.
A fine brass chain in a small, even link, plated in gold, rose gold or rhodium. It is the chain you build a pendant range on and the one customers layer with, because a fine link sits flat and does not fight the piece above it. The plating, not the links, is what sets how long the colour survives skin and sweat.
A cast brass open cuff, plated in gold, rose gold or rhodium. It slides on over the wrist rather than fastening, so there is no clasp to fail, and the brass gives it a weight that a lighter metal of the same size cannot. The single sizing decision is the inner circumference and how far the opening flexes.
A heavy brass link bracelet on a lobster clasp, plated in gold, rose gold or rhodium. The links are cast solid rather than hollow, so the bracelet has the weight the look promises, and the wrist is where plating takes the most abrasion — which is why the micron count is written on every line of the quotation.
Cast brass hoops, plated in gold, rose gold or rhodium, on stainless steel posts and backs. Casting gives a clean, even hoop with no seam, which is the whole point of a chunky hoop. The findings are stainless steel rather than brass, so the part that goes through the ear is the part that is kindest to sensitive skin.
A brass necklace and a matching pair of earrings, plated as one tone and boxed or carded for retail. The pieces are matched at the design stage and plated in one batch so the colour is consistent across the set, which is the whole reason a set can be sold above what the pieces would fetch separately.
Best sellers
A best-seller list is only useful if it is honest about why something sells. These are the brass & copper designs that get reordered most often, and the reason is usually boring in the best way: a shape everyone recognises, a weight that feels right in the hand, a finish that does not come back as a complaint.
All six are held as stock lines. That means a 30 pcs minimum per design, dispatch in 3–7 days, and the freedom to order across materials in one carton — many buyers test the same silhouette in brass and in silver to see which price point their market takes.
Material
| Fact | Detail |
|---|---|
| Skin contact | Unplated copper or brass can leave a faint green trace — plating and a lacquer coat prevent it |
| Feel | Heavier than 316L for the same volume |
| Detail | The material for filigree, rope, open-work and heavy texture |
| Findings | Stainless steel posts and backs optional for sensitive ears |
| What makes the list | How we decide |
|---|---|
| Reorder rate | Designs that come back for a second order within a season, not one-off buys |
| Return rate | A best-seller with a plating complaint is not a best-seller |
| Repeatable finish | If the finish cannot be reproduced batch to batch, it does not go on the list |
| Price-point fit | It has to work at the price tier its material implies, not just look good |
