18K Gold
18K gold has a rich tone and look that makes this a must-have material in your jewelry box. Our most premium offering, solid 18K gold jewelry, is the ideal mix of purity, durability, and value for your money. These are heirloom pieces that will last a lifetime, for you and the ones you love.
18k Gold Plated
Our 18k gold plated collection is made with a base metal of brass or sterling silver (s925 - more below), coated in a layer of real 18 karat gold; and e-coated to protect your jewelry and keep it looking new for longer.
18K plated jewelry carries the same luster and appearance as real gold jewelry, but comes at a price that you will love. It’s important to note that gold plated jewelry is likely to oxidize when exposed to water, sweat, perfumes, lotions etc. These elements can make the gold plating wear off, exposing the base layer of metal—so remember to take off your jewelry before you go for a swim, shower or workout to keep it looking new for longer.
STAINLESS STEEL
Our stainless steel is coated in a layer of 18K gold. It is coated using an advanced high-power magnetron process which produces a spectacular lustre and ensures the coating will never fade or tarnish. It is waterproof and sweatproof so wear them wherever, whenever.
Pearls
We use the highest quality of pearls in all our jewelry; freshwater and shell pearls. Shell pearls are made from the inner lining of oysters i.e. mother of pearl. This substance is ground down to a powder and coated on for a beautiful, lustrous finish that you will find across our earrings, necklaces and bracelet collections. Similarly freshwater pearls are real pearls that are harvested in lakes and are used in our most popular styles like our Freshwater Pearl Hoops, Freshwater Pearl Necklace and more.
