What we state on every order
- The base alloy and its fineness, for example 925 for sterling silver or 750 for 18k gold.
- Any surface coating, such as gold plating or a rhodium finish, and what it is applied over.
- The finish of the piece.
- Care instructions for that material.
Gold-plated is not solid gold
Gold-plated jewelry has a thin layer of gold over another metal; ours is planned over sterling silver. It looks like gold, but the layer wears with time and friction. We never call it gold, and we never describe solid gold as plated or the other way round.
Claims we don’t make
We don’t describe a material as hypoallergenic, nickel-free, recycled or vermeil unless we hold evidence for that specific material. Precious-metal marking (hallmarking) and chemical-safety compliance are confirmed through our supply chain, never guessed from a colour swatch.

Questions and answers
Which material is best for everyday wear?
Solid gold alloys are the most durable for daily wear. Sterling silver is softer and tarnishes, but it can be polished back. Gold plating wears over time, especially on rings, which rub against surfaces all day.
Is white gold always rhodium-plated?
No. Some white gold is rhodium-plated for a brighter white. If your piece has any coating, the approval page says so; without one, white gold has a soft, slightly warm grey-white tone.
Why can’t I order a material yet?
Each material is enabled only after our manufacturing partner and jeweler have approved it. Until then it has no price and can’t be selected.
