Jewelry is made from all kinds of materials. One of the most popular materials is steel, also known as Stainless Steel. We are happy to explain what Stainless Steel Jewelry is and why this material is so popular!
Perhaps one of the most important questions, can steel discolour? We get this question regularly, this differs per person (for example, the pH value of your skin and the amount of water with which the jewelry is eligible), but generally does not discolour steel. Certainly silver-colored items. Gold lasts a long time. Nevertheless, we always recommend taking your jewelry as much as possible with showering and swimming, for the preservation of quality and longer pleasure of your jewelry. Also watch out with chlorine, because of this steel jewelry can rust. Furthermore, steel is strong material and therefore suitable for making many types of jewelry, from chains, to rings and bracelets. The material is also less sensitive to scratches, dents and discoloration compared to real silver. Another important aspect, it is finely priced, in particular compared to (real) gold or silver. If you are a fan of affordable and quality jewelry, then this is an ideal choice!

Stainless Steel for the most part consists of iron and also contains chrome, nickel and carbon.
The layer of chrome protects your jewelry against discoloration and oxidation. Now I hear you think: are the jewelry not hypoallergenic because they contain nickel? Hypoallergenic does not automatically mean nickel -free, but because the percentage of nickel is so minimal, most people will not get an allergic reaction.
In short, why Stainless Steel is such a fine material:
– The jewelry is nicely priced, ideal if you regularly change jewelry and a jewelry addict bent 😉
– less quickly discoloration (watch out with chlorine/alcohol/water!)
– The jewelry has a nice shine, less chance of scratches and are lightweight
– Hypoallergenic material so that you (almost) have no chance of an allergic reaction
– There is a lot of and fun offer!
