Mixed metals are in the fashion forefront these days. Sometimes natural patinas and aged pieces are just as celebrated as a beautiful plating or a precious metal.
We have been digging up loads of vintage brass, copper and raw metal blanks and components, perfect for manipulating with hammers, piercing tools, stamps or whatever you fancy.
Tip of the Week: Looking for something a bit shinier? Our vintage metals clean up real nice. Use a heavy-duty kitchen scrub sponge, dish soap and water. Once your metal is clean, bring it up to a high shine with our polishing pads. The results will amaze you!

Vintage Metal Charm Beads: Deco Beautiful
This is just the kind of aesthetic we've built our business around. Vintage. Deco. Unusual. Beautiful. Our vintage metal charm beads were originally manufactured in the US in between the 1960s and the early 1980s. Sometimes we send these pieces to a US plater for enhanced finishes of matte sterling or 24k gold, and other times, the naturally aged and patinated finishes are so exquisite that there is no improvement to be had. These bold, decorative motifs are popular in charms, earrings, and especially lavish when clustering among layers of chain. BeadinPath.com is featuring this sumptuous selection of vintage metal beads ranging from deco dangles, double cherry pendants, sliding stars, lily pad beads to trek drops, Eiffel Tower drops, and scalloped hoops.
