Newbie question!

[rachy86]

Sorry if this sounds ridiculous!

I'm attempting to create some things as Christmas gifts and have some questions.

1/ Is it weird or not the done thing to have a sterling silver chain and to add non sterling pendants/charms from it such as silver plated on brass?

2/ If so, can anyone recommend where I buy plated loose chains from as I'm having difficulty locating anywhere!

Thank you in advance!

Cookson sell all manner of loose chain here: http://www.cooksongold.com/category_select.jsp?query=loose+chain.

They also sell chains with fasteners.

It is not weird to hang plated or other pendants from it, although plating eventually wears through and in some people can cause a skin reaction. Dennis.
