FAQ
Silver (Ag) is considered a precious metal. Like pure gold, pure silver is too soft to be worn every day, so it’s usually alloyed with another metal to make it stronger. Sterling silver (silver 925) is the purest form of alloyed silver to be worn as jewelry, containing 92.5% of silver and 7.5% of other metals.
Gold plated sterling silver is sterling silver with a very thin layer of gold applied with electroplating technique the certain thickness (we use 2-3 microns thickness). This layer is applied to enhance the prestige of the silver and to prevent the silver from tarnishing.
Titian uses waste cow bones that are later cleaned and carved manually by our skilled artisans. Cow bones have open pores that are easy to be stained by any liquid. If your jewelries have cow bones on them, do not bring them to shower or swim or other activity that can put any stain into your jewelries.
Mother of pearl also known as mother of pearl, is an organic–inorganic composite material produced by some molluscs as an inner shell layer; it is also the material of which pearls are composed. It is strong, resilient, and iridescent.
Mother of pearl that are used by Titian is also came from the pearl industry’s waste that later cleaned and manually carved. This material has less pores, so it is safe to take your jewelries to shower. However, to keep your jewelries in a good shape, please take them off before doing any extreme activity and keep them in a dry place.
The gold layer will wear off after certain usage and will show the solid silver underneath. But don’t worry, Titian puts another thin invisible layer to protect the gold layer.

The salt water or in our sweat will oxidize silver based jewelries and give them black stains, sometimes green.
