Oxidized silver and 14k
Oxidized silver and 14k gold is a mainstay in my collections. I love the contrast of the darkened silver against the yellow gold. It provides a sleek minimalist feel with just a hint of flash. Patina is not a coating. It is an oxidizing process which is done to the metal. After the metal is oxidized, it is protected with an eco friendly wax, which is made specifically for metal protection. Over time, all patina changes and becomes unique to the wearer. Patina can be removed with harsh chemicals. This piece is meant for every day wear. Please remove it when cleaning, swimming, bathing, or whenever it may come in to contact with harsh elements.
Eco Friendly
All of the metals used are recycled and smelted in the USA. This prevents additional mining, which can be quite dangerous for the planet. While many companies have pledged to use clean mines, there are still many ‘dirty mining’ processes. For example cyanide used to extract the gold leaches in to the ground water, and can kill living things down stream. I use the most reputable dealers possible, which can be more costly, but is better in the long run and for peace of mind. If you are interested in learning more about gold mining, here is an article from the Smithsonian Magazine: The Environmental Disaster That is the Gold Industry
