Most Balinese Beads and Findings are heavily antiqued using an Oxidisation process unless described as "Bali Bright". This antique process helps to accentuate the intricate detailed silver-work created by the skilled Balinese Silversmiths. Each piece is uniquely handmade, and therefore there will be slight variations and imperfections, this is what makes Balinese Silver so appealing to Designers who specialise in "One-of-a-Kind jewellery." If you require perfection, then you may prefer regular manufactured findings for your designs.
