Our Material

Material FAQ

Is your jewellery hypoallergenic?

Yes, stainless steel and 925 sterling silver are both nickel-tested and suited to sensitive skin, making our pieces comfortable for everyday wear.

Will it tarnish or fade?

Stainless steel is highly tarnish-resistant. Sterling silver will naturally tarnish over time with air and skin contact, but shine is easily restored with the polishing cloth included in every order.

Is it waterproof?

Our stainless steel pieces are water-friendly for daily wear, though we still recommend removing all jewellery before swimming, showering or exercising to keep it looking its best for longer.

Is moissanite a real gemstone?

Yes, moissanite is a genuine, lab-created gemstone valued for its exceptional hardness and brilliance — a durable, ethical choice for everyday jewellery.
