•
Quality:
High quality
Stainless
Steel
is revealing
a new vista for jewelry designs,
as you can now be adorned with
indestructible fashion statements:
looks just like Platinum but
1,000 times stronger, and much
less expensive. It is clear,
hard, radiant, very durable,
it needs little maintenance,
waterproof and will never tarnish,
is not subjected to oxidation
(if you swim with Our
jewelry they will not rust) and wear and
tear.
These
are comparison with
different grade of Silver
under normal wear and tear:
Standard .925 sterling
silver, 4 months.
3.5% platinum-enriched
sterling, 20 months.
3% palladium-enriched
sterling, 20 months.
1% palladium-enriched
sterling, 30 months.
Stainless Steel, NEVER!!
•
Safety:
In
terms of safety:
Stainless Steel 316 it is
virtually allergy-safe
(hypoallergenic). This is
due to the fact that
Stainless Steel 316 has only
10 to 14% of nickel in it
and it is so tightly bound
in the material that the
leakage of nickel is below
the threshold value set up
by most of the countries.
•
Durability:
In terms of durability, Stainless Steel is superior
to most of the precious
metals and
can survive the toughest
abuse.
Stainless Steel although readily available,
increases in value through
Our designer's
workmanship and handling
of it, especially when combined
with gold, silver, pearls, rubber
(PVC), precious and semiprecious
stones. Imperfections and
scratches, from abuse, can
be easily buffed-out without
damaging the integrity of
the piece, unlike other
traditional alloys used in
the manufacture of jewelry,
which if bent, or "fixed" a
number of times becomes thin
and weak, resulting in the
untimely loss of the piece
altogether.
• Work
Process:
Our designs
can't be duplicated by using
casting techniques like
traditional over-the-counter
jewelry,
manufactured of softer alloys:
platinum, gold or silver,
(that is stamped-out by
machine or poured into
molds, lost wax techniques), because
each and every of our piece must to
be worked totally by hand. Every
piece of VT jewelry is hand-cut
from its solid Stainless steel
piece, cutting away the excess,
leaving no seams, or dents spots,
until the final result is reached
and consequentially becomes
one-of-a-kind.
• Metal
Finish:
We do give
to Our jewelry two different
finish depends to the design
and also the kind of final effect
we are trying to achieve. Mirror
shine and soft brushed (satin
finish). The mirror shine commonly
called high polished; it's very
much like the platinum polished
look, and the brushed finish
we particularly prefer, because
it gives a dramatic modernist contrast
with the Yellow gold and the
Black pearl. When you
purchase one of our design, in
order to fulfill your needs
you have the opportunity to
choose the metal finish.
