Copper - Copper jewellery is absolutely safe to wear. Naturally antimicrobial, anti-fungal, and antibacterial, it can even stop bacteria, viruses, and fungi in their tracks. Copper is even considered to be an age-old remedy for treating skin conditions and helping wounds heal.
Brass - Brass is a popular material for making jewellery due to its affordability, malleability, and durability. It is an alloy made of copper and zinc and has a warm, yellow colour that can resemble gold. Brass can also be polished to a high shine, giving it a luxurious appearance
Alloy - Jewellers add different metals to strengthen the material and improve durability during wear. The resulting mix of two or more metal elements is called an alloy. For instance, pure silver bends and scratches quite easily. A metal alloy for jewellery, like sterling silver, is a better solution for most applications
Stainless steel - Stainless steel is a popular material for jewellery because it's affordable and durable. Unlike other softer materials, it can withstand most daily activities without sustaining corrosion and scratches. Plus, stainless steel jewellery doesn't tarnish so it looks good even with minimal maintenance
Platinum plated - Platinum plating means that materials are coated with a thin layer of platinum Since platinum is the most valuable precious metal, even before gold, the appearance of platinum and its properties can be preserved in this way at a lower price than if the entire piece of jewellery were made of platinum.
Gold Plated - Essentially where a metal goes through a process called ‘electroplating’ to cover it with a thin layer of gold to create its finished look. Plating is quite common in the jewellery world, with gold and rhodium being two popular types. This process was invented by an Italian chemist, Luigi Brugnatelli in 1805, the first person to plate a thin coat of gold onto silver.
Silver Plated - Silver-plated jewellery is made from a thin coating of pure silver over other non-precious metals
Crystal - Crystal is a type of glass that contains strengthening minerals like lead-oxide, potassium carbonate, and silica to make the material durable. The added strength allows the crystal to be moulded into thin, delicate shapes in jewellery.
Rhinestone - Rhinestones are made up of cut quartz crystals, although certain models are crafted from glass or acrylic
Cubic Zirconia - Cubic zirconia is synthetic. Made from zirconium oxide, it's designed to look like a diamond.
Zirconia - Zirconia or zirconium dioxide as it is also called—is a synthetic mineral derived from zircon sand, found in sedimentary deposits of heavy mineral sand, formed as the result of the alteration of granitic or alkaline rocks
Enamel - Enamel is comprised of the mineral calcium phosphate, arranged in a crystal structure known as hydroxyapatite.
