Why does plating fade?
Plated jewelry can naturally wear over time. How quickly this happens depends on:
- Your skin’s acidity
- How often you wear the piece
- The activities you do while wearing it

Materials & Care
Gold filled jewelry is made by bonding a thick layer of solid gold or rose gold to another metal. It's the next best thing to solid gold or rose gold, making it durable and long-lasting.
Clean with warm water and gentle soap.
WATERPROOF
We use both Argentium Silver (93.5% silver) and Sterling Silver (92.5%), making it durable, long-lasting, and tarnish-resistant.
Argentium is made primarily from recycled silver.
Silver requires polishing from time to time due to oxidation. Store in a cool, dry place. Cleaning can be done with a cleaner like Tarn-X or at our shop free of charge.
WATERPROOF
Plated pieces are composed of a thin layer of gold, silver, or rose gold bonded over brass.
It is normal for the plating to fade over time. How fast the plating fades depends on many different factors such as your skin's acidity, how often you wear the piece, and the activities you do while wearing the piece.
Remove before showering or swimming. Avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, sunscreen or other chemicals.
Store in a cool, dry place.
NOT WATERPROOF
