Why 316L steel for sensitive skin?
316L stainless steel forms a thin, protective oxide layer on its surface. It resists corrosion and helps limit the release of metals from the alloy during everyday skin contact – which is why it is chosen for jewellery worn against sensitive skin.
Waterproof for everyday life
Every design is made to stay on – in the shower, at the gym and on holiday. Let perfume and lotion absorb before you put your jewellery on, and dry it well afterwards. See how to care for waterproof jewellery.
Silver tones or gold ION plating
Silver-tone designs have the steel's own natural colour, all the way through. Gold-tone designs have 18K gold ION plating over a 316L steel base for lasting colour. Each product page lists the materials, including any stones or decorative details.
Hypoallergenic Jewellery – Frequently Asked Questions
What does hypoallergenic jewellery mean?
Hypoallergenic means the jewellery is designed and selected with sensitive skin in mind. Our designs are made in 316L stainless steel, which is hypoallergenic at material level. It is not a guarantee that everyone tolerates every material – individual sensitivities vary.
Is 316L surgical steel nickel-free?
No. 316L steel contains nickel as part of the alloy, but the nickel content is not the same as the amount released from the surface. The steel's protective oxide layer helps limit that release, so hypoallergenic and nickel-free do not mean the same thing.
Can I wear hypoallergenic jewellery in water?
Yes. The jewellery is designed to be waterproof – wear it in the shower, at the gym, in the sea and to sleep. Dry your skin and jewellery well, especially under rings and close-fitting bracelets.
Will the jewellery tarnish?
Designs with 18K gold ION plating are tarnish-resistant. Silver-tone designs are the natural colour of the steel, the same all the way through, so they are tarnish-free. ION vs PVD plating explained.
How fast is delivery, and can I return it?
Free shipping over €69, delivered in 1–4 working days, and 30 days free returns.
