GOLD OR SILVER PLATING

Some of our pieces are produced in a gold-plated metal with a layer of anti-tarnish on top for lasting. Although these pieces last quite some time, you need to take care of them. 

STAINLESS STEEL

Majority of Refined Statement pieces are produced in gold plated stainless steel. Stainless steel is a highly durable metal, allowing it to withstand the wear and tear of everyday activities. It is corrosion-free & tarnish-free. Maintaining stainless steel jewelry is also really easy as you won't have to have special cleaning solution or cloth to care for your jewelry. Stainless steel resists tarnish and corrosion thanks to an invisible layer of chromium that prevents oxidation. Stainless steel can be used for many different applications such as surgical and medical tools, aerospace applications, and architecture. But it’s also used to make jewelry and because the metal is corrosion and heat-resistant, it can make a great addition to your jewelry box. The jewelry is harder to scratch and can withstand the sun, the sand, and the sea. It really takes the stress away from remembering to take off your jewelry in the shower!  It is the most environmentally-friendly metal option in the jewelry world. In the production process, the amount of energy used and waste produced is dramatically less than in the production of other metals for jewelry. It is also 100% recyclable.
