Anyone know how to protect brass and copper jewelry?


I have been experimenting with my jewelry making by incorporating brass and copper findings. I have had people ask about skin allergies. I’m sure the findings are just copper/brass plated pewter but I’d like coat them with something to protect them so as to not cause allergic reactions. Any suggestions?

i’m glad that you appreciate caring for your jewelry. i have used clear nail polish around a brass ring so it doesn’t turn my finger green because the ring held important sentimental value to me and i couldn’t just “not wear it.” if that works, invest in a lot of clear nail polish. at wal-mart, you can buy a bottle for $0.99 without tax. otherwise you can check out some local beading shops because they have protectants to go around wire and such to prevent things like that.
