Description
For jewelry to be considered anti-tarnish, it is typically constructed with specific materials and treatments designed to resist oxidation and maintain shine:
- Base Material: High-quality versions of these earrings are often crafted from 316L surgical-grade stainless steel or 925 sterling silver. Stainless steel is naturally resistant to rust and corrosion, making it a durable choice for daily wear.
- Plating & Coating: These pieces frequently feature 18K gold PVD plating or a rhodium coating. PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) creates a thick, durable bond that is significantly more resistant to wear, sweat, and water than standard plating.
- Hypoallergenic: Anti-tarnish jewelry is generally nickel-free and lead-free, which prevents skin irritation and the common “green skin” reaction associated with lower-quality alloys.
