Education: Our Metals from Gold Filled to Silver Beaded Bracelets

 We exclusively use gold filled accent beads and connectors for our metals in collections, renowned for their durability, weight, and timeless appeal. Gold filled jewelry is tarnish resistant and will never loose its beautiful shine. Gold filled items are also hypoallergenic and therefore great for everyone. Although slightly more expensive, the long-lasting quality and ease of maintenance make gold filled products a worthwhile investment. At Brokati, we prioritize quality and value gold filled materials, ensuring our customers receive exceptional products that meet their high standards. 

We use gold-plated materials judiciously, and when we do, we apply a protective coating to prevent tarnishing and create a hypoallergenic barrier. This treatment ensures that all our gold items, whether gold-filled or gold-plated, are thoroughly protected from corrosion and allergic reactions. While gold-plated items may not be tarnish-resistant without this coating, our attention to detail ensures that every piece receives the extra layer of protection it needs to thrive, making it a superior choice.

Silver beaded bracelets offer a classic, high-end appeal with their bright, polished finish. Silver is durable and malleable, allowing for intricate designs. However, sterling silver is prone to tarnishing, requiring regular cleaning and maintenance to keep its shine. It can also be softer than other metals, making it susceptible to scratches and dents. Despite these drawbacks, sterling silver remains a popular choice for its timeless beauty and versatility, suitable for both casual and formal wear. Its hypoallergenic properties also make it a great option for those with sensitive skin.

Stainless steel accents is an ideal metal for jewelry, offering numerous benefits that make it perfect for our Brokati collections. One of the standout advantages is that it is both corrosion-free and tarnish-free, ensuring your bracelets and charms remain pristine regardless of exposure. At Brokati, we prioritize stainless steel for this very reason.

While sterling silver is luxurious, it does tarnish and demands more maintenance compared to stainless steel. Stainless steel, on the other hand, is incredibly strong, easy to clean, hypoallergenic, and heat resistant. This makes it the best choice for silver pieces and an excellent underlayer for our gold jewelry, enhancing the longevity of gold items. With stainless steel, you enjoy durable, low-maintenance jewelry that retains its beauty over time.

Our silver beaded bracelets also use silver alloy which combines the elegance of silver with the added strength of other metals, making it more durable and resistant to wear. This blend enhances the metal's overall durability, allowing for more intricate and long-lasting designs. Silver alloys are less prone to tarnishing compared to pure silver, requiring less maintenance. However, they can still tarnish over time and may cause allergic reactions in some individuals due to the presence of other metals. While not as prestigious as pure sterling silver, silver alloys offer a practical and cost-effective alternative for beautiful and resilient jewelry.
