The Magic Behind PVD:
Stainless Steel Jewelry Made Waterproof
Discover the transformative power of PVD coating in stainless steel jewelry. This advanced coating not only adds a luxurious finish but also ensures long-lasting protection against wear and environmental elements. Explore how PVD makes stainless steel jewelry both stylish and waterproof.
Stainless Steel Material
Stainless steel is naturally resistant to rust and tarnish, making it an ideal choice for a durable base. It also ensures that the jewelry maintains its structural integrity over time, even when exposed to moisture or harsh environmental conditions.
TiN Layer (Titanium Nitride)
A highly durable compound that creates a tough, protective barrier over the stainless steel. By increasing the hardness, it ensures that the underlying stainless steel remains protected from environmental factors that could cause wear or corrosion. This layer also contributes to the overall longevity of the piece, making it less prone to damage over time.
The Gold Layer
The gold layer is applied at an optimal thickness of 0.03 to 0.08 microns, balancing aesthetic appeal with durability. If the gold layer is too thin, it compromises wear resistance, making the jewelry more susceptible to scratches and fading. On the other hand, if the layer is too thick, there is a higher risk of it peeling off, which could lead to a loss of both appearance and protection.

Tame the Stainless Steel:
Mastering Full Control Over Its Properties
Design-Driven Crafting
Processes
The initial crafting process of PVD jewelry varies based on the design, influencing both the method used and the lead time. Each type of design requires a specific approach to ensure optimal quality and precision.
Casting from Making A Mold
Casting allows for highly detailed and complex designs, capturing fine details with precision. This involves creating a mold and pouring melted stainless steel into it. The craftsmanship in mold making and metal pouring ensures that every aspect of the design is faithfully reproduced.
Precision Laser Cutting
The laser cutting machine is used for profiling grooves and etching intricate patterns on the stainless steel pieces. Laser cutting provides high precision and efficiency, which is ideal for achieving detailed, flat designs with minimal material waste.
Texturing Surfaces with Stamping
Simple surface textures are achieved through stamping or punching. The process involves softening the stainless steel and applying a stamping mold with controlled force to imprint the desired texture. This technique ensures consistent and precise surface patterns, enhancing the jewelry's visual appeal and tactile quality.
Crafting Perfect Pieces
Stainless steel represents a rebellion against traditional fine jewelry, delivering high-quality pieces at a fraction of the price. Zearrow’s craftsmanship fuels this rebellion. The commitment to perfection doesn’t waver due to stainless steel’s lower cost. This philosophy guides us in crafting PVD jewelry with meticulous attention to detail.
