WHY ARE OUR JEWELS MORE DURABLE OVER TIME?
With my manufacturers, we developed a process that guarantees high-quality gold plating (almost twice as thick as standard gold plating). Unlike others, our gold plating will not turn pink.
Moreover, to protect and maintain the jewelry's shine, a patented Italian clear finishing layer is applied, preserving its beauty over time.
Let me explain everything!
Mayrena Gold Plating
a polished brass base without defects for better adhesion
a bronze underlayer (prevents discoloration)
18-carat gold plating thicker than average (5 microns instead of 3)
a patented transparent protection
Mayrena Solid Silver
a base of recycled 925 solid silver, polished to a mirror finish
patented transparent protection preserves silver from oxidation without coating it with palladium or rhodium
WHY DO SOME JEWELS CHANGE COLOR?
Traditional Vermeil: Weaknesses
Over time, its color changes due to:
the silver underlayer eventually showing due to friction,
the silver base shows scratches more than brass,
no transparent protection to preserve it.
Classic Gold Plating: The Flaws of Thin Plating
Over time, its color changes due to:
the rose copper underlayer eventually showing due to friction,
18-carat gold plating is only 3 microns thick,
no transparent protection to preserve it.
At Mayrena Paris, our customers love beautiful things... especially when they last.
That's why we worked hard to create an 18-carat gold plating that does not fade over time. No jewelry turning pink, just well-thought-out pieces!
In short, jewelry made to last a long time.
