Grams are sometimes misunderstood little critters. Sure, 1 gram doesn't read as "heavy" but stack them up to 7, 8, 9 grams and you may think "Wow, that should "feel" heavy in the hand." So, to give a tangible, hands on idea of what 1 gram "feels" like you can grab a small paper clip - or a single thumb tack - or even any single bill of U.S. currency....yep, all about 1 gram! Before buying that next solid gold piece grab the equivalent in the above household items so you know what to expect 😊

taggedvintage @glossiergirl True - I suppose gum does vary a lot in size and shape - I just purchased a gram scale for jewelry and it puts one of my candy coated chiclet pieces of gum at 1.3 grams.

fantasticfits @taggedvintage oh gotcha. Haven’t thought of chicklets in years haha I was definitely thinking one from the common pack size of 16

taggedvintage @nakther33 Just a idea of actual weight - it can be difficult to judge by a photo, so this gives you some actual household items you can "hold" to get an idea of what each piece weighs - the weight of my pieces can be found in photo form, or even in the listing descriptions
