About Titanium
Titanium is an exceptionally light metal - twice as light as silver - yet its strength rivals that of structural steel. In its natural environment, it instantly coats itself in an incredibly resilient oxide film. Titanium oxide is a highly chemically stable compound; it can only be dissolved by volatile hydrofluoric acid, which is not found in a free state in nature. Due to the strength, lightness, and chemical inertness of this natural, self-healing protective layer, titanium is widely used in the aerospace and shipbuilding industries.
Furthermore, titanium possesses excellent biocompatibility and does not cause allergic reactions. This is why it is extensively used in surgery for bone plates and joint replacements, in dentistry for permanent implants, and in the crafting of piercing jewelry.
Our favorite and truly magical moment! When you see a beautiful, colored titanium piece, you are actually looking at something that has no "color." What you see is a magical transformation of incident light, reflected off the titanium and manifesting in our eyes! "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder" - this phrase fits the occasion perfectly.
A bit of physics: When a titanium piece is heated or undergoes an anodizing process, the oxide film on its surface begins to thicken. Once it reaches a specific thickness, the rays of incident light refract and, as a result of interference, take on a visible Color.
The color achieved this way remains on the piece for many years. The finish is unaffected by salt, solvents, soap, creams, or perfumes. You can swim in the sea or a pool, and even go to the sauna in these pieces. You can wear your titanium jewelry constantly, without ever taking it off! Additionally, thanks to the material’s strength and lightness, it is possible to create pieces that are unusually lightweight compared to traditional materials - a vital feature for those with high sensitivity to the weight of jewelry.
Despite all the advantages mentioned above, we strongly recommend reading our CARE section!
Our Eco-Approach
In our work, we use titanium scraps from the machinery industry as our raw material, increasing the recycling rate of titanium mill products to 99%. In doing so, we not only give the material a second life but also significantly reduce the energy costs required for titanium production and processing.
