Our materials

Recycled stainless steel

Brass can react with your skin, gold-plated silver can wear thin within a year, and solid gold is priced for special occasions. So we build on 316L recycled stainless steel, one of the few metals strong enough to carry a gold coating that lasts. Unlike grade 304, which a lot of jewellery uses, 316L contains molybdenum, making it far more resistant to salt water, sweat and chlorine. It's the same grade used in surgical instruments, and it's hypoallergenic and suitable for most sensitive skin. Jewellery you can wear every single day, wherever the day takes you.

PVD gold coating

Regular gold plating can wear off within months, especially with sport, sweat and salt water. PVD (Physical Vapour Deposition) solves this: in a vacuum chamber, the gold is bonded to the steel at a molecular level. This creates a finish far harder than traditional plating. Many brands use titanium nitride, a gold-coloured compound with no gold in it at all. We use real 18ct gold, and it’s recycled too. So your piece keeps its colour while you train, swim and travel, and we back that with a 2-year warranty.

Natural stone

Some of our pieces are set with natural stones, because colour that comes from the earth has a depth that glass and plastic can’t copy. Unlike the too-perfect shine of mass-produced jewellery, every natural stone is slightly different, with its own subtle variations in colour and light. For now, we work with garnet and white topaz, naturally clear and hard enough to keep their sparkle through everyday wear. No two are exactly alike.

Made to be worn, not stored

In the shower | In the sea | At your desk | On the dance floor

Made to stay on

Pretty much everywhere

Shower

Every day. No need to take it off.

Sea & pool

Swim in it. A quick rinse afterwards keeps it bright.

Sleep

Leave it on if you like.

Sunscreen & perfume

It can handle both. Apply them first and your jewellery second for the longest-lasting shine.

Three tiny habits to keep it golden

These three habits help your pieces keep their shine and colour for longer.

Rinse after the sea or the pool

Rinse with fresh water, then pat dry with a soft cloth. Your jewellery is made for salt water and chlorine, but left to dry on the surface, they can build up a dull film and wear on the finish over time. A quick rinse washes that residue away, so the gold stays bright and the coating lasts longer.

A proper clean, now and then

Warm water, a drop of washing-up liquid and a soft toothbrush around any texture or setting. Rinse and dry fully. Skip jewellery dips and silver polish: they’re made for silver’s tarnish, not for steel, and can be harsh on the coating.

Keep pieces apart

What marks jewellery most is other jewellery. When pieces rub together, harder surfaces like stones and clasps can leave fine scratches on the gold coating over time. Store pieces separately and fasten chains before putting them away. That keeps them free of knots and scratches.

Two things worth knowing

Pieces with stones

Garnet and topaz are hard enough for daily wear. The settings are the delicate part. Clean gently around the stone and skip ultrasonic cleaners.

Training and manual work

Take rings off for weight training or rough work. Steel is hard, but constant friction against a barbell will dull any finish over time.

RJC-certified

Every piece is made in an RJC-certified factory. The Responsible Jewellery Council audits it independently on human rights, working conditions, health and safety, and environmental management. It covers how and where our jewellery is made, by whom and under what conditions, and is checked every few years by an independent body.

Common questions answered

Can I shower and swim in it?

Yes. Our pieces are 316L recycled stainless steel with a PVD gold coating, so they hold their colour through sweat, salt water and chlorine. You never have to take them off. A quick rinse with fresh water afterwards for the longest-lasting shine.

Will the gold wear off?

PVD isn't like regular plating. The gold bonds to the surface at a molecular level, which is why it lasts far longer than standard gold plating. With normal wear, you shouldn't see fading.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

316L stainless steel is naturally hypoallergenic and doesn't react with skin the way brass or copper alloys do. If you have a diagnosed metal allergy, check with your doctor first.

How should I care for my pieces?

Rinse with fresh water after the sea or a pool, dry with a soft cloth, and store pieces separately so they don't scratch each other. That's genuinely all it needs.
