Titanium is 45% lighter than steel with comparable strength, and twice as strong as aluminum while being only 60% heavier.
In medical use titanium pins are used because of their non-reactive nature when contacting bone and flesh. Many surgical instruments, as well as body piercings are made of titanium for this reason as well.
In jewelry, titanium is one of the most popular metals. This is due to its ability to be colored easily, and its relative inertness. It is 100% compatible with the human body, not producing allergic reactions, skin irritations or discoloration of any sort, making it the ideal metal for those with sensitive skin.
About Stainless steel Jewellery
Recycled stainless steel isn’t harmful for environment. The most oxidization resistant steels are 300 series steels and mostly used for jewelry. Our jewelry uses a high grade steel from 300 series called Grade316L, that is more corrosion and pitting resistant than conventional chromium-nickel stainless. This allows the jewellery to take on a shine akin to silver. Stainless steel jewelry is naturally hypoallergetic.
About Tungsten Jewellery
Tungsten is about 10 times harder then 18K Gold, 5 times harder than titanium, which measures between 8 and 9 on the Mohs hardness scale. (Diamonds are a 10 - the highest) By its very nature, tungsten carbide is not vulnerable to scratching or carving. Then they are polished with a diamond compound, resulting in a polish and shine that will last forever. Many people also enjoy the heavy weight of a tungsten carbide bracelet, ring or pendant. Our tungsten jewellery is cobalt free.
