Materials Used in Gratinsta Jewelry

What Materials Does Gratinsta Use?

 

Sterling silver, also known as S925, is one of the main metals used in GRATINSTA jewelry. Sterling silver is strong and durable, making it a good choice for everyday wear and long-lasting jewelry.Sterling silver is hypoallergenic, so it's suitable for people with sensitive skin and has a low risk of causing an allergic reaction. On our sterling silver pieces we have rhodium plating which protects your jewelry from tarnishing. 

The thickness of 18k gold layers can vary, but it usually falls within the range of 0.5 to 2.5 microns1. However, at GRATINSTA, we go the extra mile by using 3.0 microns of gold plating. This thicker plating provides a richer, more even gold tone.

Our 14k yellow gold pieces can last forever if they’re properly cared for. 14k gold has a higher percentage of alloyed metal making it more durable and resistant to everyday wear than 18k gold.

We use 316L surgical grade stainless steel, the highest grade of stainless steel available.316L offers excellent strength and durability, making it suitable for everyday wear. Its resistance to tarnish, and discoloration ensures longevity in jewelry pieces.
