Spiral Charm Material Experience — Titanium Steel & Zinc Alloy Set

This set includes two matching Spiral Charms — one crafted in zinc alloy and one in titanium steel. Both share the same spiral silhouette and dimensions, so you can directly feel how material alone changes weight, sound, surface texture, and magnetism.

Buy this set and learn how to differentiate jewellery materials through real, hands‑on experience — weight, sound, surface feel, and magnetism become instantly clear when you can compare both charms side by side.

Material Comparison (Learning Set)

Material comparison is a simple, hands‑on way to learn how different jewellery materials behave in real life.  By exploring two charms made in the exact same shape but crafted from two different metals, you can observe how material alone changes their weight, sound, surface feel, and magnetism.

This learning set is designed to help you build real, tactile understanding of jewellery materials — the kind of knowledge you can’t get from photos, descriptions, or online listings. It’s a small, practical introduction to how metals differ, and why those differences matter in everyday wear.

Included in the Set (Two Spiral Charm with different materials)

• Zinc Alloy: 19.5mm (W) × 22.8mm (H with hook), approx. 1.9g
• Titanium Steel: 19.5mm (W) × 22.8mm (H with hook), approx. 2.1g

Both charms share the same smooth, continuous spiral design and pendant hook.

Why This Set Exists

Instead of guessing from photos, this pair lets you test materials in your own hands — how they move on a cord, how they sound when tapped, and how they feel over time. It’s a small, tactile way to understand zinc alloy versus titanium steel before deciding what you prefer for future pieces.

The Big Four Tests

These four simple tests make the differences between the two materials obvious.

1. Magnetism Test
   Zinc Alloy: Non-magnetic
   Titanium Steel: Slightly magnetic
   The quickest technical difference.
2. Surface Test
   Zinc Alloy: Softer, warmer tone, may dull faster
   Titanium Steel: Crisper polish, cooler tone, holds shine longer
   Run your thumb across the spiral — titanium steel feels more defined.
3. Weight Test
   Zinc Alloy: Approx. 1.9g — lighter in hand
   Titanium Steel: Approx. 2.1g — slightly denser, more reassuring
   The difference is small on paper but clear when you hold both.
4. Sound Test (the most obvious)
   Zinc Alloy: Dull, muted tap
   Titanium Steel: Clear, bright, bell-like ring
   This test is unmistakable once you hear both.

Side-by-Side Comparison

Q&A — Understanding Your Material Experience Set

Q: Why are there two charms in this set? A: The set includes one zinc‑alloy charm and one titanium‑steel charm so you can directly feel how different jewellery materials behave when the shape and size are identical.

Q: What am I supposed to learn from this? A: You’ll learn how metals differ in weight, sound, surface feel, and magnetism — the four most important characteristics that affect how jewellery feels and wears over time.

Q: Which material is better? A: Neither is “better” — they simply behave differently. This set helps you understand those differences so you can make informed choices for future jewellery purchases or designs.

Q: Why do the charms have the same shape? A: Keeping the shape identical removes all variables except the material itself. This makes the comparison accurate, clear, and easy to feel.

Q: What should I notice first? A: Most people notice the sound test and weight difference immediately. Titanium steel rings brighter and feels denser; zinc alloy feels lighter and sounds muted.

Q: Is this set meant for wearing? A: You can wear them, but the primary purpose is educational — a hands‑on way to understand jewellery materials through real physical experience.

Q: Will the two materials age differently? A: Yes. Zinc alloy may dull faster, while titanium steel tends to hold its shine and shape longer. Observing this over time is part of the learning experience.
