What are the Swarovski crystal filigrees made of?
The silver-colored filigree components are composed of brass with a high-quality, tarnish-free, rhodium plating. Rhodium is frequently used as the plating on white gold and platinum wedding rings to add hardness and a brilliant sheen. We offer both bright and antiqued versions of the rhodium. Swarovskis antiquing process leaves the metal a bit lighter than gunmetal and darkens the crystal color a shade. The gold-plated filigree pieces are composed of brass with a high-quality plating of heavy 14kt gold.
