The signature Fredrick Prince chains that everyone has come to know and love are purchased in their raw form – brass. When making our vision come to life during the design process, we work with raw brass – a dark, gritty metal – and then plate it using a local third-party jewelry plater.
Our original designs are primarily plated in oxidized brass or oxidized sterling silver. The plating process is a tedious one, requiring countless hours from platers to manually wipe each chain with a special cloth designed to remove the levels of oxidation to ensure we get that recognizable Fredrick Prince style and achieve distinctive, consistent plating on each piece. We also use 14k gold plating, to add an extra pop of luxuriousness to our pieces.
We chose brass as our primary design element for its significant weight; for its ability to hold plating well, thus achieving that unmistakable Fredrick Prince look.

We achieve our unique aesthetic by fusing a signature mix of genuine semi-precious gemstones and bold chains. The metal and plating we use to create our chain gives Fredrick Prince its edge, while the stunning quality, cuts, and bold, rich colour of our carefully hand-chosen stones make each piece feminine and luxurious.
Our expertly selected semi-precious gemstones are picked from bead strands that are typically pre-cut and drilled, and are removed individually, one by one, ensuring only the best of the best makes the cut into your final piece of jewelry. We take pride and care when picking out our stones -- you’ll never find a plastic bead in any of our designs.
All of our semi-precious stones are globally sourced and selected for their beautiful, unique qualities and characteristics, like their distinct strengthening, energy and healing properties. We will also occasionally feature vintage glass beads for an added special touch. An extended description of gemstone properties corresponding to individual pieces can be found on each product page.
Some gemstones are limited in availability and harder to source, however, that won't stop us from making a small number of pieces that capture the original, one-of-a-kind statements in true Fredrick Prince craftsmanship.
