Why Does Jewelry Tarnish?

People opt for costume jewelry that are pretty and also affordable. However, these fashion jewelry are often made of low-quality materials such as aluminum, brass, and copper. These inexpensive metals have a tendency to tarnish easily. They also cause allergic reactions on sensitive skin. Sometimes, even gold-plated jewelry or silver-plated jewelry tends to tarnish, leaving behind a dull piece of jewelry. When metals are exposed to sulfur, air, makeup, sweat, or other substances, they oxidize and change color. Jewelry can become completely black or slightly dull, based on the exposure.

Why Tarnish-Free Jewelry Doesn't Tarnish?

Most tarnish free jewelry brands make their pieces with durable and resistant stainless steel. PVD (physical vapor deposition) coating process is used to keep the jewelry tarnish-free. In this technique, metals or alloys are treated in a vacuum to deposit a thin coat on them. Titanium nitride is used in the process to provide a durable coating to the PVD jewelry. PVD coating is considered far superior to traditional gold plating. PVD-coated jewelry has a higher resistance to external environmental factors. PVD jewelry has a beautiful appearance and last longer.

Another great metal for tarnish-free jewelry is titanium jewelry. Titanium does not react with water and is rust-resistant. This makes it the perfect choice for waterproof jewelry and sweatproof jewelry. If you are looking for non-tarnish jewelry, then Alibaba.com is the right place for you.
