There are approximately 1500 rings in each half pound bag(measured by weight), we always include extra in each bag just in case there are any defects from the manufacturing process. The color shade can vary from batch to batch so be sure to order everything you need at once if you are doing a large project.
They are made of aluminum which is coiled first then anodized before being cut. During the process a microscopic hard porous layer is created on the surface of the metal which is then dyed. Each batch does include some defects due to how they are cut. We always include extra in each half pound to account for any defects you may receive! Every ring will have an un-anodized area where the cut is made, so when you close them they should appear as a solid color.
