The Magic of PVD Jewelry: The Secret to Pieces That Lasts a Lifetime

The Secret to Jewelry That Lasts a Lifetime: Unlocking the Magic of PVD

Ever wondered how AVARIA jewelry stays looking so good, even after countless swims, showers, and everyday adventures? The secret lies in a special process called PVD, or Physical Vapor Deposition.

Soooo, PVD. What exactly is it?

PVD is a cutting-edge coating process that's far superior to traditional gold or silver plating. It involves vaporizing a solid material (like gold) and depositing it in a layer over stainless steel jewelry. This creates a bond that's incredibly strong and durable, resulting in jewelry that's:

  • Waterproof: Shower with it, swim with it, sweat with it – your AVARIA pieces can handle it all!
  • Fade-proof: Say goodbye to tarnished and discolored jewelry. PVD ensures your pieces stay vibrant and shiny.
  • Hypoallergenic: Perfect for sensitive skin, PVD jewelry won't cause irritation or itching.
  • Variety of Colors and Finishes: PVD allows for a wide range of colors and finishes, from classic gold and silver to more unique options.

PVD vs. Traditional Plating

Think of traditional plating like painting a wall. It might look good for a while, but eventually, the paint can chip and fade. That's because traditional plating involves dipping jewelry in a solution containing metal ions – it's a bit like a thin coat of paint that can wear off over time.

PVD, on the other hand, is like dyeing a piece of fabric. The color goes deep into the material, so it won't fade or chip easily. That's because PVD uses a special process to bond the coating to the jewelry at a molecular level. It's like the color becomes part of the jewelry itself!

So, if you're looking for jewelry that will stay beautiful for years to come, PVD is the way to go. It's the secret to jewelry that can handle everyday wear and tear without losing its shine.

Why Stainless Steel?

Stainless steel is the perfect base for PVD coating. It's strong, durable, and resistant to rust and discoloration. This means your AVARIA jewelry can withstand the test of time, keeping its shine for years to come.

Stainless steel may not be the most luxurious metal, but it's definitely a workhorse when it comes to jewelry. This sturdy material provides the perfect foundation for our PVD coated pieces, ensuring they can handle everyday wear and tear with ease. Plus, it's naturally resistant to rust and discoloration, meaning you can shower with your jewelry, wear it to the beach, or even accidentally drop it in the sink without fear of damage. And here's a bonus: stainless steel's smooth surface helps our PVD coatings shine even brighter! It's like a hidden superpower that ensures your jewelry always looks its best. So, while it may not be the flashiest metal, stainless steel is a key player in making AVARIA's PVD pieces both beautiful and long-lasting.
