[Jewelry making - Article 01034] - [Orchid] False gold filled

[Bruce Ogilvie]

========[ Invite a Friend - http://www.ganoksin.com/invite.htm  ]========

Hello

    The current issue of Bead and Button (April 2008) page 10 shows
    Rashbel Marketing Ltd claiming to be able to cast gold-filled. 

    Gold filled is a mechanical bonding of a gold alloy to base metal
    usually brass. 

    Can this claim be stopped before it destroys the integrity of our
    marking and stamping laws? 

    Thanks for your time to consider this.
