The Creative Dezigns jewellery is made out of pure copper and brass, which is rolled into sheet form, approximately 1 mm thick.

With punches and molds, the basic shapes of the jewellery are then cut, and given to the welders, who working with oxy-acetylene torches braze on the decorative pieces of wire, cable and cord which are needed for that particular design.

While they are doing this, the piece will be come red hot and through being quenched in a variety of liquids of Creative Dezigns own "brew" will assume a colour much darker than the colour it will eventually have. The lightening process is done by stroking the piece with a flame in the same way as a painter will apply the finishing touches to a canvas. The piece (and some chokers and earrings may consist of several pieces) will now go to be hammered - which is firstly to add to the design and secondly to dome the piece to lend depth and dimension, drilled and sandpapered.

The next process is the polishing which is done first with a coarse cloth and polish and then again with four different grades, working progressively towards the soft, even shine and luster which has become the hallmark of Creative Copper quality. The polish leaves an oily film on the jewellery so it is then hand scrubbed in a solvent bath and cleaned with a lint free cloth.

It is then taken to a different part of the factory area which is totally dust free and assembled with rings, clasps, and other side design pieces - all out of solid brass. Dipping in an imported German polyurethane lacquer is the next step, which happens three times to each piece to build up a good thick layer, as it is this what stops the jewellery from tarnishing.

The lacquer will protect the jewellery provided, it is only cleaned with a soft cloth. Any polishes, all of which have abrasive properties to the greater or lesser extent, will rub off the lacquer. Should this inadvertently happen, clear nail polish can be applied which will protect it against tarnishing.
