3. Why do you use stainless steel and not sterling silver?

We use surgical grade stainless steel. It is the same grade as those used to make tools for surgeons. It is inert and most people do not have allergies to it. Sterling silver or 925 silver changes colour over time as it oxides and some people have allergic reactions. Stainless steel is also a harder metal compared to sterling silver and can last longer.

4. What is rhodium and why do you use that instead of sterling silver?

Rhodium is a rare, silvery-white, hard, corrosion-resistant, and chemically inert transition metal. It is a noble metal and a member of the platinum group and is the most expensive of all precious metal. It is also nickel free.

Rhodium is also more expensive than sterling silver or gold currently. We use high quality white gold plated rhodium chains manufactured in Japan. They do not change color like silver.

5. What are your chains made of?

Our chains have several options, 16K gold plated, white gold plated rhodium chains and faux leather chains. For 16K gold plated chains and white gold plated rhodium chains, the color is beautiful and discoloration is slower compared to normal gold plating. It is cheaper and harder than 18K gold plated but lasts the same.
