Some is shiny and and some has patina from age. It is all very usable at a good price. We use this metal in our own creations.   Gauges or Thickness: The lower the gauge number the thicker the metal. For example 23 gauge sheet metal is more than twice as thick as 30 gauge. See below for gauge charts.   Hardness: Basically how easy it is to bend or work:              Medium Soft is pliable yet holds up for folding and hammering. Thicker metal bends less easily than thin.              Medium Hard is stiff, bends less easily and holds is shape better in larger pieces     FINISH: Our raw/bare metals can be buffed up after a piece is completed.  More information on METAL CRAFT HOW-TO : Cleaning, cutting, forming, soldering & finishing   PATINA: All the metals we offer are raw with no wax or varnish and will gain an aged patina over time.

GAUGE Chart for sheet & wire: *This chart shows approximate gauge thickness for wire to give a relative idea of different gauges. The Gauge chart picture may not appear correctly on some computer screens due to different screen resolutions and page size settings.   Adjust your screen or estimate If this does not appear as one inch   We urge ordering a sample to see exact thickness and to get a feel of a wire. Nothing beats hands on experience.We do not accept returns unless a sample has been ordered first.   Gauge is thickness.The higher the gauge number the thinner the metal.   Thinner metal bends more easily.   The thickness of craft metals shipped is as close as possible to these charts for sculpture and craft work where price is more of a consideration than scientific precision from length to length.   This wire is not made and not certified for scientific precision, electronic, medical nor food use.         GAUGE Charts for copper sheet & wire: To see what we offer in these gauges click to see our pages:   SHEET METAL       TOOLING FOIL     CRAFT WIRE    RECYCLED METAL    Gauge  Dimension (inches)  Pounds per Sq.
