    The FTC defines "hand-made" as any article made in its entirety
    by hand. That includes findings. A wax, even though it may be
    hand carved, becomes a casting and can therefore not be called
    hand-made. This is the reason why hand-made rope chains usually
    have a handmade barrel clasp , instead of the much more secure
    lobster claw. It is o.k. to use fabricated sheet and wire to make
    things, but the piece must be made totally by hand. Hope that
    helps. If anyone has any questions about Platinum, call our
    hotline at (714) 760-8882 or use this forum.

Have a platinum day
