THE GUIDE: PROPERLY ANALYZE THE COMPOSITION OF YOUR JEWELRY

Many of you ask us how to properly analyze the composition of jewelry before placing an order. It is indeed essential to understand what you are buying to ensure that you get a quality piece of jewelry that is durable and does not cause allergies.

Here is a practical guide to help you in this task.

Understand your needs

First, ask yourself what your goal is .

Are you looking for a jewel for a special occasion or do you want to wear it every day? If you plan to wear the jewelry permanently and want to keep it for a long time, it is recommended to choose jewelry with a silver base.

Unlike brass and stainless steel, silver does not blacken or rust and is free of nickel, lead and cadmium.

Additionally, silver is a hypoallergenic material, which means it is less likely to cause an allergic reaction.

gilding

The quality of the gilding is also an important factor to consider.

At Sun Society, we recommend a gilding of at least 5 microns to ensure the longevity and resistance of the jewel. Pay attention to jewels called "gilded with fine gold", this name can be misleading, if you thought that it would guarantee exceptional longevity. It is often a very fine gilding, less than 1 micron, which can flake off and cause the jewel to darken.

Beware of varnished jewelry

Also be careful with varnished jewellery. Although varnish can give a shiny and attractive appearance to the jewel, it tends to flake off over time. When the polish flakes off, the jewelry underneath can darken, losing its shine and appeal.

Learn about the materials

Finally, it is crucial to understand the materials used in the manufacture of the jewel. Make sure the company is transparent about the provenance and quality of its materials. At Sun Society, we pride ourselves on using recycled silver to minimize our environmental impact.

By following these tips, you can ensure that you are buying quality jewelry that is durable and meets your needs. At Sun Society, we are committed to creating ethical and sustainable jewelry without compromising on quality or style.

Thank you for your support,

The Sun Society team
