Our Materials

Precious Metals Only

All DOS jewelry is exclusively made with solid 925 sterling silver and 18k gold vermeil. Sterling silver is a highly durable metal and perfect for everyday wear. We take pride in using only precious metals as they ensure long-lasting durability and beautiful finish. This way, our products not only look great, but they also stand the test of time.

18k Gold Vermeil

It's important to know that gold vermeil is not the same as standard gold plating. Gold vermeil is a thick layer of real 18k gold over solid 925 sterling silver. Standard gold plating is a thin layer of gold and wears off much faster than gold vermeil. Our gold vermeil has a thickness of 2.5 microns. This makes gold vermeil much more durable and longer-lasting compared to standard gold plating.

Rhodium

Rhodium is a platinum that is highly durable and gives jewelry a beautiful shine. *All our 925 sterling silver jewelry is coated with Rhodium to give our jewelry extra shine and durability.

*Our oxidized jewelry is not coated with Rhodium.

Gold Vermeil & Rhodium

Gold Vermeil and Rhodium will naturally wear/fade off over time, depending on how much you use your jewelry and how you take care of it. The more you take care of your jewelry, the longer it will last.
