In this post, we'll dive into the materials and craftsmanship that set Blingflare apart, provide clear comparisons between popular materials and gemstones, and share expert tips on caring for your precious pieces.
What Makes Jewelry High-Quality?
High-quality jewelry is defined by two key elements: superior materials and excellent craftsmanship. At Blingflare, we prioritize both to ensure that every piece you purchase is beautiful, durable, and timeless.
Blingflare's Material Commitment
We use only the finest materials to create jewelry that lasts. Here's a breakdown of what we offer:
1. Precious Metals
- 14K Gold: A perfect balance of purity and durability. It contains 58.3% pure gold, mixed with alloys like copper or zinc for strength. Ideal for everyday wear.
- 18K Gold: With 75% pure gold, it's richer in color and value but slightly softer. Great for special occasion pieces.
- PT950 Platinum: Composed of 95% pure platinum, it's one of the most durable and rare precious metals. Naturally hypoallergenic and maintains its lustrous appearance forever.
- Sterling Silver: Composed of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals (usually copper) for durability. It's lustrous, affordable, and perfect for both casual and formal styles.
