🛠️ Choose the metal that suits you best.  Choosing the right metal makes the difference between a piece that you always carry and one that is forgotten in a drawer. Here we explain how the metals we use for our jewelry are similar and how they differ, and why the sleepers/chains are always made of silver or gold-plated silver to avoid allergies.  ✨ Brass  Brass is a copper and zinc alloy with a natural golden tone, perfect for pieces with a warm shine and an authentic look.  Advantages:  Very resistant and durable  Warm shine without the need to be plated  Allows elaborate and detailed designs  What to expect:  Over time it can darken or develop a soft patina, which gives it character.  If you want it to shine again, it is easily polished. We have our cleaning gel available on the web.  ✨ Brass plated in gold  This metal combines the strength of brass with a 24-carat real gold layer applied by electrolytic deposition.  Advantages:  Elegant golden look without the price of solid gold  The gold tone is maintained and harmonized with the brass underneath  Ideal for earrings and pieces that you want to wear in style  It does not darken over time, it always maintains the shine.  ✨ Silver (925)  Sterling silver is a noble, precious and classic metal.  Advantages:  Very durable and resistant  Maintains its shine with proper care  It can be used every day without losing its beauty  Perfect for:  Earrings that come into contact with the skin  People with sensitivity or allergies (silver is less reactive)  It is a precious metal, hence the price difference with the brass.  ✨ Silver bathed in gold  If you like the golden tone but want the base to be silver, this is your best option.  Advantages:  Golden look with the quality and safety of silver underneathMore durable and less prone to irritation than other metals  Why we chose silver for interns and chains. In all pieces that are in direct contact with the skin such as:  Pending interns  Necklace chains use silver or silver plated in gold to minimize reactions and allergies.  Silver is a noble metal, hypoallergenic and safe for daily use, even for sensitive skin.  🧠 In summary📌  Basic care (to make them last longer)  Avoid water, perfume and creams while wearing the pieces  Keep them in your individual box or bag  For bathed jewelry: clean gently with warm water and neutral soap. Avoid doing it on painted jewelry.
