FAQs

What materials are your pieces made from?

All our jewellery is made from stainless steel, and the majority of our pieces feature PVD plating for extra durability, tarnish resistance and water resistance.

Will my jewellery tarnish or discolour?

PVD plating is significantly more durable than traditional plating. With proper care, your pieces will maintain their finish. We recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to perfume, chlorine and harsh chemicals.

What is PVD plating?

PVD stands for Physical Vapour Deposition. It is an advanced vacuum-coating process that creates a highly durable, sweat-resistant and tarnish-proof finish.

Is your jewellery waterproof?

Our pieces are water-resistant, meaning they can handle everyday exposure like washing your hands, getting caught in the rain.

How do I care for my jewellery?

Wipe gently with a soft cloth after wearing. Store pieces individually to avoid scratching. Put your jewellery on last, after perfume, hairspray and moisturiser.

Do you offer gift wrapping?

Are your pieces suitable for sensitive skin?

Stainless steel is hypoallergenic and one of the most skin-friendly metals available, making it a good option for those with sensitivities. That said, if you have a known metal allergy, we'd recommend consulting your dermatologist.
