Materials & Care
The materials we choose are just as intentional as the pieces we create. Every material is carefully selected for its beauty, durability, and longevity. We believe what something is made of matters just as much as how it makes you feel.
14K Gold-Filled
14K Gold-Filled jewelry offers the beauty of solid gold with exceptional durability for everyday wear. Unlike standard gold plating, gold-filled jewelry is created by permanently bonding a thick layer of genuine 14K gold to a jeweler's brass core using heat and pressure. The result is a finish that is significantly more durable than plated jewelry and designed to last for years with proper care.
Highlights
- Thick layer of genuine 14K gold
- Rich, warm gold color
- Tarnish resistant
- Won't flake or peel like traditional plating
- Designed for everyday wear
- A beautiful balance of luxury and longevity
Care
- Wipe gently with a soft jewelry cloth after wearing.
- Store in a dry place when not in use.
- While highly durable, limiting exposure to chlorine and harsh chemicals will help preserve its finish for years to come.
.925 Sterling Silver
Sterling Silver is a timeless precious metal made from 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% alloy for added strength. Loved for generations, it naturally develops a soft patina over time that many appreciate as part of its character, though it can always be polished back to its original brilliance.
Highlights
- Genuine precious metal
- Timeless and versatile
- Beautiful natural luster
- Can be polished and restored
- Designed to last a lifetime with proper care
Care
- Wear often—your skin's natural oils can actually help slow tarnishing.
- Clean periodically using a soft polishing cloth.
- Store in a dry, airtight container when not being worn.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture, chlorine, and harsh chemicals.
Gold Vermeil
Gold Vermeil (pronounced ver-may) combines the beauty of gold with the quality of sterling silver. Unlike standard gold plating, vermeil features a substantially thicker layer of gold over a solid .925 sterling silver base, making it more durable while offering the warmth and richness of gold.
Highlights
- Thick layer of genuine gold
- Sterling silver base
- More durable than traditional gold plating
- Rich, luxurious finish
- A beautiful option for those who love precious metals

Care

Lead & Nickel
Your comfort is just as important as quality.
Unless otherwise noted, our jewelry is thoughtfully crafted using high-quality materials that are lead-free and either nickel-free or nickel-safe, depending on the material, making them suitable for most sensitive skin.
Because every person is different, sensitivities can vary. That's why we carefully source materials that meet our standards for quality, comfort, and longevity. If you have a known metal allergy or experience irritation, we recommend discontinuing wear and consulting a healthcare professional.
A Little Extra Care
Jewelry is made to be worn, loved, and lived in. While every material has its own unique care recommendations, a little extra intention goes a long way. Store your pieces thoughtfully, clean them gently when needed, and whenever possible, remove them before activities that may cause unnecessary wear.
With just a little extra care, your jewelry can be worn and enjoyed for years to come.
