Inexpensive and fun! Most stamped charms are one-sided, thin, and either flat or slightly domed.
Size given is height x width and includes loop. Most loops are 0.8-1.2mm (inner diameter).
Raw brass is unplated, plain brass that has been stamped out from a brass sheet on a punch press. Items are "rinsed" in a sheet of dry sawdust to remove grease left behind from the press.
Raw brass charms sometimes have a thin coat of oil, so be sure to wash them before gluing. Warm water and detergent (dry to avoid water spots) or alcohol and a cotton ball will do the trick.
Raw brass is not quite as shiny as most plated finishes. To make your raw brass items shinier, tumble-polish them with steel shot, water and a burnishing compound in a rock tumbler.
A handful of the plated charms are cold-rolled steel (CRS) instead of brass, and will have CRS next to the color name. CRS is similar to brass, but sturdier.
